Failure of negative feedback mechanism in homeostasis may result in:
Correct answer: B. Uncontrolled hormone release
- A. Stable body temperature
- B. Uncontrolled hormone release
- C. Normal blood glucose
- D. Normal urine concentration
Explanation
Negative feedback ensures stability; failure can lead to excessive hormone secretion or homeostatic imbalance.

About Homeostasis
Homeostasis maintains a stable internal environment through the kidney and urinary system, thermoregulation and excretion. The kidney topics include filtration, selective reabsorption, urine formation and water balance, while thermoregulation involves sweating, vasodilation, vasoconstriction and hormonal control; excretion is different from egestion, which removes undigested food.
