When the level of a certain hormone gets too high, it stimulates the hypothalamus and anterior pituitary gland to release an inhibatory hormone to make the gland that is secreting the hormone stop making more of it so the level goes down.

Use hormone and feedback mechanism in the same sentence?

The endocrine system uses hormone signaling in a feedback mechanism to regulate various bodily functions and maintain homeostasis.

What controls the endocrine system?

The endocrine system is controlled by the hypothalamus and pituitary gland located in the brain. These structures release hormones that regulate the other glands in the endocrine system, which in turn release hormones that regulate various bodily functions. Hormone levels are maintained through a complex feedback mechanism to ensure proper function of the endocrine system.

What body system is regulated by feedback mechanism?

The endocrine system is primarily regulated by feedback mechanisms, particularly through negative feedback loops. These loops help maintain homeostasis by adjusting hormone levels in response to changes in the body. For example, when hormone levels rise above a certain threshold, the endocrine system can inhibit further production, ensuring balance. Positive feedback mechanisms also occur, but they are less common and typically involved in processes like childbirth.

Does the endocrine system often run on negative feed back?

Endocrine system usually uses the negative feed back mechanism. So suppose when thyroid stimulating hormone is released, then thyroid hormones are released. They reduce the secretion of thyroid stimulating hormone. This is how the secretions of the hormones is regulated. In positive feed back mechanism, the level of both the hormones will raise and will create lot of problems.


How does the endocrine system use feedback loops to maintian homeostasis?

There are many endocrine systems. An endocrine system is one where a gland excretes substances internally or to a surface such as the skin. Both salivary glands and sweat glands are two such systems. It may seem picky to make this distinction but each system uses its own feedback to achieve homeostasis (equilibrium). There are several types off feedback loop such as "mechanical circuits" (sweat cooling skin to slow this process) or by nervous or hormonal systems. edit: Neither salivary glands nor sweat glands are apart of the endocrine system. Both are exocrine.


What is a process in which the endocrine system is turned off by the condition it produces?
