hey can1 explain wats a negative feedback

Heyy.. see all the time the hypothalamus is monitoring small changes in the temperature of the blood. Like if it rises above normal, then it places actions to lower it. Then, as soon as the hypothalamus senses the lowered temperature, it stops these actions from taking place and starts off another action to help raise the temperature of the blood. This is known as Negative feedback.

The "feedback" refers to the fact tht when the hypothalamus has made the skin take actions to increase heat loss, information abt the effects of these action are FED BACK to the hypothalamus, as it senses the drop in blood temperature.

The "Negative" is because the information that the blood has cooled stops the hypothalamus making the skin do thses things..

I hope u have understood..  ;D

What topics do we think will come on Bio Paper 3 tomorrow?
I guess genetic engineering won't come since it came in O/N last year, and teeth can't come, since we had SO MUCH of that in P6 (variant 2, at least). Penicillin came in P6 too... so what else is left for Paper 3? Any ideas?


Reproduction - both in plants and animal (BIG chap)
Environment n stuff .. definitions of ecosystems population
Genetic variation .. mitosis and meiosis
Transport in animals and plants ..
Enzymes
wat else ?? .. i'll tell if i can think of any ..
there also huge chances for homeostasis and excretion
