The ADH feedback loop is an example of a negative feedback loop. Negative feedback loops occur when the output of a system acts to oppose the changes to the input of the system. This is the case with ADH because when there is not enough water, the hypothalamus and pituitary gland work to release ADH so that the body can retain more water.

dik Not sure what they mean by that but... A good example of a positive feedback loop is the increased production of insulin by our pancreas. After a meal we may have heightened blood sugar levels. The endocrine system triggers insulin production in the pancreas to counteract this rise and return our blood sugar levels back to normal. Once normality has been reached the endocrine system signals our pancreas to cease the production and release of insulin. Actually, that is an example of a negative feedback loop. Negative feedback loops negate an action, while positive feedback loops encourage it. An example of a Positive feedback loop is childbirth, the body increases the amount of oxytocin in the blood to encourage contractions in order to birth the baby.
- temperature - negative feedback loop - positive feedback loop - water balance
A: It does not. The loop becomes unstable ONLY if there is positive feedback either voltage or phase. For a close loop to be stable negative feedback is required.
Dehydration is not an example of positive feedback. Positive feedback loops amplify or reinforce a pathway or process, while dehydration is a state where the body lacks adequate water, leading to negative effects on various bodily functions.
Negative feedback is a feedback where it is used in negative side in a closed loop system.Such as a inverting side feedback in op-amp.
The positive feedback loop is terminated by the end of childbirth...
You must give "which of the following" for us to answer your question.
No, a predator-prey relationship is not an example of a positive feedback loop; rather, it is an example of a negative feedback loop. In this relationship, an increase in prey population leads to more food for predators, resulting in an increase in predator numbers. However, as predator populations rise, the prey population may decline due to increased predation, which in turn can lead to a decrease in predator numbers when food becomes scarce. This cyclical dynamic helps maintain balance in the ecosystem.
This is known as a feedback loop. When a system's output influences its input in a way that reduces the output, it can lead to the system shutting down or destabilizing. This feedback loop can have either positive (amplifying) or negative (stabilizing) effects on the system.
Ozone layer depletion is an example of a positive feedback loop, where the thinning of the ozone layer allows more harmful UV radiation to reach the Earth's surface, leading to further ozone depletion.
Hyperthermia itself is not a positive feedback loop, but it can involve positive feedback mechanisms. In hyperthermia, the body overheats, and mechanisms like increased heart rate and metabolic activity can exacerbate the situation if not regulated. For example, elevated body temperature can lead to increased muscle activity, generating more heat and potentially worsening the condition. However, the body's response to overheating typically involves negative feedback systems aimed at restoring normal temperature.
