What else can I help you with?
Is contractions during childbirth positive or negative feedback?
Positive feedback.
Describing what is feedback system and differentiating between positive and negative feedback?
when a woman's contractions speed up during labor is negative or positive feedback
Is blood regulated by negative or positive feedback?
negative feedback via baroreceptors in the carotid artery and aortic arch
What is a feed Back?
It depends on whether it is positive or negative feedback. Most biological organisms exhibit both negative and positive feedback, including humans. An example of positive feedback is contractions during childbirth. Negative feedback is blood sugar regulation based upon the release of insulin into the bloodstream at necessary times.
Is blood pressure regulated by positive or negative feedback?
Aldosterone is both responsible for absorption of sodium and excretion of potassium. If it is regulated by the level of potassium in blood, then we have negative feedback as high levels of aldosterone causes a decrease in potassium level in blood. If it is regulated by the level of sodium in blood, the story is just the opposite and we have positive feedback. -my own conclusion from several researches-

What is a positive feedback mechanism?
A positive feedback mechanism is a system the responds to perturbation in the same direction as the perturbation. A positive feedback mechanism allow cells to adapt to changes in their environment rapidly and efficiently. Positive feedback allows cells to reach new levels of equilibrium corresponding to the stimulus in the environment
Is blood pressure negative or positive feedback?
Is the clotting of blood an example of positive or negative feedback?
Positive feedback differs from negative feedback in that?
Most of the mechanisms in our body are regulated by negative feedback inhibition. In this type of process, the end product shuts off or reduces the intensity of the original stimulus. Production of certain hormones when mother is giving birth to a child is regulated by positive feedback inhibition. In this type of process, response leads to an even greater response.
Compare and contrast negative and positive feedback mechanisms and give some examples?
Negative feedback mechanisms work to maintain homeostasis by reversing a change in a system, while positive feedback mechanisms amplify and reinforce a change. An example of negative feedback is the regulation of body temperature – if body temperature rises, mechanisms kick in to lower it; whereas in positive feedback, childbirth contractions become stronger and more frequent to facilitate delivery.
Are labor contractions positive feedback?
Yes, labor contractions are an example of positive feedback. The contractions cause the release of oxytocin, which further stimulates increased contractions, resulting in the progression of labor. This cycle continues until the baby is born.
The increasing labor contractions of childbirth are an example of?
positive feedback
