The scenario describes a positive feedback loop. In this case, the release of hormones triggers more contractions, which in turn leads to more hormone release, continuing the process until the baby is born. Positive feedback loops amplify the process rather than dampen it, which is characteristic of the situation described.
Read the scenario below. Which type of feedback loop is occurring?
During labor, certain hormones are released that cause the contraction of the uterus in order to push the baby out. When those hormones are sensed by the glands of the endocrine system, they secrete more of that hormone which keeps labor going until the baby is born.
