    If some stimulus caused blood pressure to decrease, the heart rate would increase and blood vessels would decrease in diameter, as part of a negative feedback loop. Negative feedback loops help regulate blood pressure and internal environments by reducing changes to the system in response to a stimulus, bringing it back to normal. In this case, a decrease in blood pressure would trigger an increase in heart rate and constriction of blood vessels as part of the negative feedback system regulating blood pressure.

    What would happen to heart rate if some stimulus caused blood pressure to

    decrease? Would this occur by way of positive or negative feedback?


    Feedback loops are the responses to a stimulus of biological systems to either increase
    the change to the system or reduce it to bring the system back to normal. The output of a
    system could either amplify the system (positive feedback) or inhibit the system (negative
    feedback). Allowing living organisms to their internal environment relatively constant
    (homeostasis).
    A negative feedback loop helps regulate blood pressure. If some stimulus caused blood
    pressure to decrease, the heart rate would increase and the blood vessels decrease is
    diameter. All due to the operation of the negative feedback system.
