keep it at the set point. All homeostatic mechanisms use a feedback loop to inform the body about any changes that occur externally or internally. There are two different kinds of homeostatic mechanisms: a positive feedback mechanism and a negative feedback mechanism. Positive feedback mechanisms boost physiological processes and amplify the system’s action to move the system away from the equilibrium state so it is more stable. Negative feedback mechanisms‚ on the other hand‚ maintain equilibrium
