Select the statements that correctly describe positive feedback pathways.

4. Feedback contributes to homeostasis.
5. Feedback stimulates the effector to continue to do the same thing.
6. Feedback stops the effector from doing one thing and stimulates it to do the
opposite.
7. When the target level for a hormone is reached, feedback results in a reduction of
that hormone being released.

Out of these eight statements, there are three statements that are related to positive feedback pathway

These are:

A sensor/receptor is required to monitor and limit levels.

Feedback stimulates the effector to continue to do the same thing.

When a target level for a hormone is reached, feedback results in an increase of that hormone being released.

Other options are related to negative feedback pathway. (except option 4, this is not specific to positive or negative pathway).




Hope you will find this helpful. Good luck!
