Question
The feedback mechanism is an important aspect of hormonal coordination. Explain.

Answer

Yes feedback mechanism is a very important aspect of hormonal co-ordination. The feedback mechanism of hormones is the mechanism through which the balance of hormone in the blood/ body is maintained. The increase or decrease in the concentration of that hormone can either stimulate the secretion of that particular hormone or inhibit the hormone secretion. This is called feedback.
