    Explanation:

    Positive and negative feedback are essential to the body's homeostasis, or to maintain balance and regulate the internal environment of organisms; that is to say, they are important for the organisms to self-regulate themselves. Positive feedback is in the same direction as the initiating stimulus as they amplify the original stimulus. Positive feedback leads to an increase in a reaction, thus amplifying the effects of a reaction. However, negative feedback decreases a reaction; negative feedback stabilizes the system.
