It is a loop or set of responses shown by the effectors that weakens the effect of the initial stimuli:
Correct answer: A. Negative feed back
- A. Negative feed back
- B. Neutral condition
- C. Positive feed back
- D. Static state
- E. Thermal state
Explanation
Negative feedback is a regulatory mechanism that works to counteract or reduce the effects of a stimulus, restoring the system to its original state or set point. In a negative feedback loop, the response by the effectors weakens or opposes the initial stimulus. So option A is the correct answer.

About Coordination and Control
Coordination depends on receptors, neurons, synapses and nerve impulses, with reflex actions traced through the reflex arc and the roles of major brain regions. Chemical coordination covers endocrine glands and hormones, including how hormones regulate growth, metabolism, reproduction and internal balance, unlike rapid nervous control.
