41 What is an example of negative feedback?
A dog panting in the hot sun
NB #17 Notes - Homeostasis Think Bank
42 What is the major difference between positive and negative feedback?
Positive feedback causes bodily processes to continue; negative feedback causes bodily processes to start or stop

43 What might happen of you didn’t run a fever when you got sick?
Your body wouldn’t fight off the infection as efficiently as it could

45 Normal air contains approximately 20% O2 and 0.5% CO2. When a human inhales, we absorb and use some of the oxygen we breathe in. Our metabolism converts that oxygen to carbon dioxide, which we exhale, or outgas. Without properly functions lungs, what would occur?
Homeostasis would not be maintained
