Animal Physiology
Feedback mechanisms are processes that regulate biological systems by using the output of a system to influence its activity, maintaining homeostasis and promoting stability within an organism. They can be categorized into positive and negative feedback, where negative feedback serves to reverse changes, while positive feedback amplifies them. These mechanisms play a critical role in various physiological processes, influencing everything from hormone levels to body temperature.
