Answer:

D. When a person is losing balance, the body senses the position of the head and sends signals to keep balance.

Explanation:

A negative feedback loop is a response by the body to an internal change that activates mechanisms that reverse or negate that change bringing the body back to its set point. A set point is the normal level the body tries to maintain.
