Term
| Negative feedback control mechanisms (used by most of the body's systems) are called negative because the information caused by the feedback causes a reverse of the response. TSH is an example: blood levels of TSH serve as feedback for production of TSH. |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
| Positive feedback control is used in some cases. |
|
Definition
| Input increases or accelerates the response. During uterine contractions, oxytocin is produced. Oxytocin causes an increase in frequency and strength of uterine contractions. This in turn causes further production of oxytocin, etc. |
