  1. Homeostasis (article) | Feedback | Khan Academy

    Jun 18, 2016 · Key points Homeostasis is the tendency to resist change in order to maintain a stable, relatively constant internal environment. Homeostasis typically involves negative …

  2. Negative feedback loop examples (article) | Khan Academy

    The primary way that organisms maintain homeostasis is through negative feedback loops. These feedback loops counteract, or oppose, a change in the organism. In this article, we’ll cover …

  3. Homeostasis and feedback loops (article) | Khan Academy

    Learn about homeostasis in organisms, and about negative and positive feedback loops.

  4. Feedback in living systems (video) | Khan Academy

    So now we know that homeostatic mechanisms usually involve negative feedback loops, but what about positive feedback loops? Well, many organisms actually use positive feedback loops to …

  5. Body structure and homeostasis review (article) | Khan Academy

    Homeostasis typically involves negative feedback loops that counteract changes of various properties from their target values. An example of a negative feedback loop is body …

  6. Physiological concept of positive and negative feedback

    Negative feedback controls a process to prevent product accumulation, maintaining balance in our bodies. The menstrual cycle in females is an example of these feedback mechanisms at work.

  7. Hormone concentration metabolism and negative feedback

    Hormone concentration in our bodies is tightly regulated through metabolism, excretion, and feedback loops. The liver, kidneys, and sweat glands help remove excess hormones. Negative …

  8. Positive feedback loop examples (article) | Khan Academy

    Maintaining homeostasis typically occurs through negative feedback loops. These loops counteract a change, bringing the value of a physiological variable (such as temperature or …

  9. Homeostasis (video) | Feedback - Khan Academy

    Homeostasis, or maintaining a steady body temperature, is achieved through feedback mechanisms. Exposure to extreme temperatures triggers physiological responses like …

  10. Feedback (practice) | Khan Academy

    C Positive feedback moves a system closer to its set point, while negative feedback moves a system further from its set point. D Positive feedback occurs only in response to stimuli, while …
