application question 2

     When the person was infected  corona virus the patient having the symptom of high temperature. During a fever, when body is maintaining a temperature of 101°F, it is actually operating within a negative feedback loop.The hypothalamus (a part of the brain) acts as the body’s thermostat and detects this elevated temperature.When the temperature elevated releasing chemical signal reported to the brain causing the body to generate more heat. In response, the hypothalamus triggers various physiological mechanisms to reduce the body temperature and restore back to the normal range. Conclusion, during a fever, body efforts to reduce the elevated temperature (such as sweating and vasodilation) demonstrate a negative feedback loop, as they aim to restore the normal body temperature.

In my point of view homeostasis usually involves negative feedback loops, in this scenario elevated body temperature can define positive loop. When trying to rely the cause I can able to figure out why we get fever.  Finally,I clearly understand that because of  of the microorganism causing body response resulting having fever. Our body trying fight the virus  by increasing the body temperature to kill the virus.
