Feedback Loops And Homeostasis

Feedback loops are critical in maintain homeostasis for organisms. The two kinds of loops are positive and negative. Negative is especially influential in process of homeostasis because of the ability to regulate amounts thus making negative feedback often times an asset. The feedback loops and hormones are both critical for each other to function. The actions of feedback loops and hormones can then change the concentration gradient. The kidney is a vital organ to maintain a proper level of homeostasis. Small capillaries within the kidney are at risk of leaking. The filtration system in the kidney in these patients can malfunction possibility causing capillaries to allow protein to be dumped into the urine. Protein method of transportation is in passive diffusion which goes across a cell membrane without a energy input required. Passive diffusion is a kind of concentration gradient.
Specifically if she is experiencing preeclampsia. The feedback systems and homeostasis are not the same things however negative feedback is closely related. It is important to note positive and negative feedback can both do positive and negative things. Positive feedback enhances stimulus in order to provide a greater production of the product. An example is blood clotting which involves chemicals signaling the platelets to come quickly and will continue signaling for the duration that is needed. A wound will send chemical signals (hormones) asking for more platelets to be released to the area until it has clotted. A hormone is a substance that helps keep the body in balance while watching cells or organs. Since this is a positive feedback loop the two steps prior to the area clotting will
