Negative and Positive Feedback Mechanisms - ANSWER -Negative Feedback Mechanisms- In these systems, the output shuts off the original stimulus or reduces intensity. Examples: Regulation of body temperatures; Withdrawal Reflex in which the hand is jerked away from a painful stimulus such as a broken glass; As blood volume drops, the hypothalamus of the brain is stimulated to release ADH to the blood. Positive Feedback Mechanisms- The result or response enhances the original stimulus so that the activity is accelerated.

cells cell processes that might be quite long extend from the nucleus-containing
cell body. Also contributing to nervous tissue are non irritable supporting cells.

(muscles and glands) which control their activity.
Location: Brain, spinal cord, and nerves
