The effector in a feedback loop is commonly known as the target organ or tissue that is responsible for carrying out the response to the stimulus. It receives signals from the control center based on the information it receives from the sensor.
The effector.
The part of a feedback loop that directly influences the regulated condition is called the "effector." It receives signals from the control center and produces responses to counteract any deviations from the set point of the regulated condition.
The pathway from the control center to the effector involves several key components of the feedback loop. First, the control center, often the brain or endocrine glands, processes information from sensory receptors about a change in the environment. It then generates an appropriate response and sends signals, typically via nerve impulses or hormones, to the effector. The effector, which can be a muscle or gland, executes the response to restore homeostasis or achieve a specific physiological effect.

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.

Sensor: detects changes in a physiological variable. Integrator: compares the sensor's input to a set point and signals the effector of any required changes. Effector: brings about the response to counteract the initial change and restore homeostasis.
Stimulus: The initial event that triggers a response. Sensor: Detects changes or fluctuations in the environment. Control center: Processes information and coordinates a response. Effector: Produces a response to counteract the initial stimulus.
The three basic components of every feedback control system are: the sensor (or detector) which measures the system's output, the controller which processes this information and generates a control signal, and the actuator (or final control element) which takes the control signal and adjusts the system's input to achieve the desired output.

The structure that receives output from the control center in a feedback system is typically the effector. The effector is responsible for carrying out the response dictated by the control center to maintain homeostasis or achieve the desired outcome.
