Negative-Feedback Control Systems

Question

Negative-feedback control systems:
A)oppose a change.
B)accelerate a change.
C)have no effect on the deviation from set point.
D)establish a new set point.

Accepted Answer

Negative-feedback control systems oppose a change and work to bring the deviation from the set point back towards the desired level. This is achieved through the activation of inhibitor pathways or the suppression of stimulatory pathways in response to the deviation.
