Question 1

  1. Positive feedback differs from negative feedback because ________.

    positive feedback is generally beneficial while negative feedback is typically harmful

    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
