maintaining body temperature is an example of a:
negative feedback loop
positive feedback loop
Brief Explanations
In biology (a subfield of Natural Science), maintaining body temperature (homeostasis) typically uses a negative feedback loop. A negative feedback loop counteracts changes to return to a set point (e.g., if temperature rises, mechanisms cool the body; if it falls, mechanisms warm it). Positive feedback loops amplify changes, which isn't how body temperature is regulated.
