Question

A positive feedback loop, where the product signals for the production of more reactant, is maintained homeostasis.

a. True
b. False

Answer 1

False

Homeostasis is defined as the process of resisting change in order to maintain a stable environment. It typically involves negative feedback loops as these loops prohibits the change to occur in the human body system and maintain a constant internal environment. While positive feedback is the process of amplifying the stimulus produced within the body.

Homeostasis is thus regulated by negative feedback loops and rearely regulated by the positive feedback loops.
