Positive feedback mechanisms are overwhelmed. Set points are always maintained The internal environment is becoming more stable.

Which of the following is an example of homeostasis? Choose all answers that are correct as there may be more than one correct answer. Show answer choices The body shivering when outside in the cold. The release of insulin after a meal to encourage your body to absorb the sugar from your blood, thus lowering your blood sugar. Producing sweat when outside on a hot day that can evaporate into the air. Breathing faster while exercising to add more oxygen to the blood and remove excess carbon dioxide from the blood. Stretch receptors in your blood vessels detect when blood pressure is high and send signals to increase the diameter of your blood vessels and reduce the output from the heart to lower your blood pressure.

When you get cut, your skin cells release hormones that signal platelets to come and stop the bleeding. Platelets then release more hormones that signal even more platelets to help stop bleeding. The hormone signals continue until the cut is closed. Which type of feedback mechanism is exhibited in the given situation?
