Which sequence correctly illustrates a negative feedback system?
A)input → negative effect → output → change
B)external stimuli → effector → internal change → integration
C)sensor → integrator → effector → compensatory response
D)integrator → effector → compensatory response → sensor
E)negative input → sensor → integrator → positive output

Question

Which sequence correctly illustrates a negative feedback system?
A)​input → negative effect → output → change
B)external stimuli → effector → internal change → integration
C)sensor → integrator → effector → compensatory response
D)integrator → effector → compensatory response → sensor
E)​negative input → sensor → integrator → positive output

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The sequence of sensor → integrator → effector → compensatory response is a classic example of a negative feedback system. The sensor detects a deviation from the set point, the integrator compares this input to the set point and sends a signal to the effector, and the effector produces a compensatory response to return the system to its set point. This maintains a stable system with limited fluctuation.
