Positive Feedback Loop
This video presents the same text shown beside it, spoken and on screen. It adds nothing the text does not say.
State
A positive feedback loop amplifies a stimulus in its original direction rather than reversing it, and is rare in animal bodies compared with negative feedback.
Show
Rising oxytocin during childbirth strengthens uterine contractions further, rather than damping them, until delivery is complete.
Watch for
Positive feedback needs a natural endpoint built in, since nothing in the loop itself reverses the direction.
