How does negative feedback maintain a tendency toward balance in a system? What is a threshold in a system?
The way in which negative feedback maintains a tendency toward balance in a system and the definition of threshold in a system.
Feedback is the change or adjustment between the parts of a system by an interaction. There are two kinds of feedback relationships in a system, such as negative feedback and positive feedback.
Negative feedback is generally beneficial because it helps to maintain the equilibrium static by reducing the number of changes...
