Feedback and Homeostasis Warm Up #1

The two types of feedback systems that help organisms maintain homeostasis are:

• positive and negative 
• receptor and effector
• static and dynamic
• minor and major

Maintaining body temperature is an example of a:

• negative feedback loop
• positive feedback loop

reverses the direction of change

• positive feedback

• negative feedback

increases or speeds up original change

• negative feedback

• positive feedback

What is another word that can be used to describe "homeostasis"?

• equal

• complete

• stable

• correct

What is the point of a feedback loop?

• To provide the body with more energy.

• To provide the body with more food.

• To make sure the conditions in the body are always changing.

• To make sure the conditions in the body remain stable.

Loops that cause a response to build up and build up until something big happens are called ____________ loops
