CORRECT

• Time Remaining: 07:12:51

Which of the following options lists the correct order of events in a signaling pathway in a feedback loop used to maintain homeostasis?

Receptor → Effector → Integration → Stimulus → Response

This answer is incorrect because a stimulus is the initial signal detected by a receptor, leading to a response.

Receptor → Stimulus → Integration → Response → Effector

This answer is incorrect because a stimulus is the initial signal detected by a receptor and the final result should be the response.

Stimulus → Effector → Integration → Receptor → Response

This answer is incorrect because a stimulus is the initial signal detected by a receptor, not an effector.

Stimulus → Receptor → Integration → Effector → Response

MY ANSWER

This answer is correct because a stimulus is the initial signal detected by a receptor. Information received is sent to the nervous system and an effector is used to achieve a response.
