Summary Introduction
To describe:
A non biological example of the positive and the negative feedback.
Introduction:
The feedback can be of two types positive and negative. The positive feedback is a feedback in which the products enhance the procedure by which the product is formed, resulting in further formation of the products. The negative feedback is the system by which the products inhibit the process of formation of product and result in decreased formation of product.
