Detailed explanation-1: -Negative feedback keeps the concentration of a hormone within a relatively narrow range and maintains homeostasis. Very few endocrine hormones are regulated by positive feedback loops. Positive feedback causes the concentration of a hormone to become increasingly higher.
Detailed explanation-2: -A negative feedback loop is one way that the endocrine system tries to keep homeostasis (stability) in the body. If an endocrine gland senses that there is too much of one hormone in the body, it will initiate changes to decrease production of that hormone.
Detailed explanation-3: -Feedback Control of Hormone Secretion The endocrine system is controlled by complex feedback mechanisms in which the secretion of a hormone is turned on (stimulated) or turned off (inhibited), depending on its concentration. Such feedback mechanisms help the body maintain homeostasis.
Detailed explanation-4: -The Endocrine system maintains homeostasis by producing hormones. These hormones are sent to different glands and organs which in turn make changes that help the body remain in balance. For example, the thyroid gland is an endocrine gland that helps to control metabolism.
