  1. negative feedback
  2. positive feedback
28
Q

What is negative feedback?

A

Reverses bodily response back to normal state.

29
Q

Explain the negative feedback loop of body temperature control.

What are the receptors, control center, and effectors?

A

thermoreceptors…hypothalamus…sweat glands, skin, blood vessels… sweat, vessel dilation/constriction.

30
Q

Explain the negative feedback loop of blood sugar control.

What are the receptors, control center, and effectors?

A

increased blood glucose…pancreas releases insulin…increased storage of glucose…decreased blood sugar.

31
Q
