Change Head Cervix Oxytocin Positve Feedback Internal Enviro

Front Positve feedback
Back
  • Change in internal enviro detected by sensory receptors and effectors reinforce that change and increase response
  • Examples include blood clotting cascade (platelets bind to damaged region and release facors initiating clotiing and attract more platelets) and childbirth (baby head pushes against cervix, oxytocin forms and stimulates uturus contraction, pushing head even harder against cervix, which releases more oxytocin until child born)
