4. Explain the concept of positive feedback. Give an
example of a hormone that works through positive
feedback. - CORRECT ANSWER >>>>1- Positive
feedback is the action of a hormone increasing the
production of that hormone. (This is the opposite of
negative feedback). 2- One example is the action of
oxytocin causing the uterus to contract during
labor. Oxytocin enhances the effect of the uterus
contractions, causing more oxytocin to be released.
The positive feedback loop is stopped once the
baby is born and the uterus no longer needs to
contract, stopping the production of oxytocin.
