Question

Contractions in labor are an example of which feedback mechanism?

negative feedback loop
stimulus/response loop
homeostasis imbalance
positive feedback loop

Answer 1

poditive feedback loop

Step-by-step explanation:

Oxytocin stimulates the muscle contractions that push the baby through the birth canal. The release of oxytocin result in stronger or augmented contractions during labor.
