Directions:The human body is very complex and seeks to maintain a constant internal environment. This state of dynamic equilibrium is called homeostasis. Some diseases such as diabetes can impact the body's ability to maintain homeostasis. To maintain a relatively constant internal environment, the human body uses negative and positive feedback.For your initial post,answer the following question:As a medical professional, how would you explain the role negative and positive feedback plays in maintaining homeostasis to a newly diagnosed diabetic patient?For your reply post,consider and address the following questions:What do you think about your classmate's explanation of negative and positive feedback? Is there anything else you would have discussed regarding homeostasis with the patient?Is it important to discuss which organ system(s) are impacted by diabetes? If so, which organ systems are impacted and what role do they play in homeostasis?

Answer
Homeostasis typically involves both negative as well as positive feedback loop where the positive feedback amplifies the negative stimuli which helps to move the system away from the starting state. On the other hand, negative feedback loop counteracts changes of various properties from their target values. In case of a diabetic patient, the control of blood sugar through insulin is an example of negative feedback.
