Accepted Answer

Homeostasis

Question 5

Which of the following best describes the role of the effector in a homeostatic control mechanism?

Accepted Answer

Provides the means for the control center's response to the stimulus.

Question 6

Which of the following is an example of negative feedback in homeostatic control?
