Indicate whether the following physiological event represents
-increased blood flow into muscle tissue in response to a localized increase in carbon dioxide
A)intrinsic control
B)negative feedback control
C)positive feedback control

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The physiological event described represents intrinsic control, where local tissue changes (increase in carbon dioxide) lead to a localized response (increased blood flow to the muscle tissue). This is not a negative feedback response because negative feedback typically involves a system-wide response to bring a parameter back to its set point, while in this case the response is localized. This is not a positive feedback response because positive feedback would involve a response that further amplifies the initial stimulus, which is not happening in this scenario.
