Question
Chapter 1, Problem 21CP
Summary Introduction
To explain:
In what way the positive feedback is helpful in blood clotting but not in thermoregulation of the body.
Introduction:
The homeostasis is maintained by the various feedback mechanisms in the body of an individual. The feedback system comprises of both the negative and positive feedback mechanisms that all provide stability to the body of the organism.

Positive feedback loops are the opposite of negative feedback loops. In a positive feedback loop, any change in the original variable triggers mechanisms that actually push the variable further in the direction of the change. Imagine that body temperature was regulated in this way. Briefly explain what would happen.
