Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Positive feedback is the feedback mechanism used for blood clotting. In positive feedback, the response or output enhances the original stimulus, leading to the amplification of the signal. For example, during blood clotting, platelets release chemical signals that attract more platelets to the injury site, leading to the formation of a blood clot. The clot, in turn, releases more chemicals that attract more platelets, and the cycle continues until the bleeding stops.
