Q

What r the components of Neg. feedback? How do they work together to maintain homeostasis?
Also be able to recognize it or provide an ex.

A

Sensor , Set point , effector
Sensor detects the change from homeostasis
Set point - tells what a particular value should be
Where the effector makes the physical change to return back to homeostasis
ex. the bodies temp. increases. the sensor detects the rise in temp. of the body The set point is at 98.6ocand the effector begins to make the body sweat to lower body temp. back to normal.
Negative feedback opposes change to maintain homeostasis

Q

Explain the principle of positive feedback and be able to recognize it or provide an ex.

A

Amplifies an initial change
Opposes homeostasis, drives further away from the set point
Occurs rarely n the body
Good for situations where rapid change is desirable

a. Feedback cycle initiated
b. Clotting occurs as platelets adhere to site and release chemicals
c. Released chm attract more platelets
d. Clotting proceeds; newly forming clot grows
e. Feed bCK CYCLE ENDS AFTER CLOT SEALED
