negative feedback loop
Positive feedback loops are common in pathophysiological perpetuation of disease. For example, arteriosclerotic hypertension results in positive feedback mechanisms thatenhance and propagate the initial step in the chain of events, which is hypertension.
Negative Feedback Loops
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.
A sensor in a negative feedback loop is when your body detects changes and sends a signal to the brain for a response.
They work a bit like a thermostat that keeps a constant temperature in a house. Negative feedback loops work through receptors, which sense a change such as in blood pressure. Signals are then sent to the control centres, usually in the brain, which then give instructions to the effectors - mechanisms which then regulate conditions such as blood pressure and bring it back to normal
Positive feedback loops rarely occur. This is because positive feedback stimulates your body to respond in the same direction as the stimulus, most often increasing instability

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.
No, but you would see the most detrimental effect in the north pole because of large number of positive feedback loops.
Feedback loops are images that help organize feedback. These graphic charts can be made using Microsoft Office, any Adobe product, or can be found online at any image hosting website.
