Quizplus · Accepted Answer

During labor, positive feedback occurs involving oxytocin and prostaglandins. Oxytocin causes the uterus to contract, which stimulates the release of more oxytocin and prostaglandins, leading to stronger contractions and ultimately the birth of the baby. This positive feedback loop continues until the baby is born.
