Negative Feedback Loops:
A
amplify processes
B
prevent small changes from getting larger
C
are initiated during childbirth
D
are found only in plants
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Negative feedback loops amplify changes to the set point of a system. Positive feedback loops reverse changes to the set point of a system. Negative feedback loops maintain changes to the set point of a system. Positive feedback loops amplify changes to the set point of a system.

Detailed explanation-2: -Positive feedback loops enhance or amplify changes; this tends to move a system away from its equilibrium state and make it more unstable. Negative feedbacks tend to dampen or buffer changes; this tends to hold a system to some equilibrium state making it more stable.

Detailed explanation-3: -Also known as an inhibitory loop, a negative feedback loop allows the body to regulate itself. The process starts when there is an increase in output from a body system, which results in higher levels of certain proteins or hormones. This stops (inhibits or reverses) future production by the system.

Detailed explanation-4: -The hallmark of a negative feedback loop is that it counteracts a change, bringing the value of a parameter-such as temperature or blood sugar-back towards it set point.

Detailed explanation-5: -Negative Feedback. In a negative feedback loop, feedback serves to reduce an excessive response and keep a variable within the normal range. Examples of processes controlled by negative feedback include body temperature regulation and control of blood glucose.
