Positive and Negative Feedback Loops in Biology

Positive and Negative Feedback Loops in Biology

Feedback is defined as the information gained about a reaction to a product, which will allow the modification of the product. Feedback loops are therefore the process whereby a change to the system results in an alarm which will trigger a certain result. This result will either increase the change to the system or reduce it to bring the system back to normal. A few questions remain: How do these systems work? What is a positive feedback? What is negative feedback? Where do we find these systems in nature?

Lewis Structures: Explanation, Review, and Examples

The only thing smaller than atoms are their subatomic particles; electrons, protons, and neutrons. Not even under a complex microscopic can we view the individual electrons that surround an atom’s nuclei. The Lewis Dot Structure is a visual which represents the outermost shell of electrons, also known as valence electrons, and possible covalent bonds within an atom or molecule.
