Question 1
Positive feedback differs from negative feedback because ________.
positive feedback is generally beneficial while negative feedback is typically harmful |
||
positive feedback tends to enhance the triggering stimulus while negative feedback tends to return the body to a homeostatic balance or "ideal" level |
||
positive feedback is critical to health while negative feedback serves only to alert us to potential health threats |
||
positive feedback provides moment-to-moment wellbeing while negative feedback causes a cascade effect |
