The Nervous, Endocrine And Reproductive System

The characteristics of the endocrine system that makes its reactions different from those of the nervous system is that: the endocrine system is slower at communicating than the nervous system, the endocrine system hormones only reacts to cells with distinctive receptors for that hormone, and the endocrine system hormones practically reaches all cells in the body.

The nervous system consists of the brain, spinal cord, and a complex network of neurons. This system is responsible for sending, receiving, and interpreting information from all parts of the body. The nervous system monitors and coordinates internal organ function and responds to changes in the external environment. This system can be divided into two parts: the central nervous system and the peripheral nervous system. Let 's take a look at the central nervous system.

The endocrine system includes of specific tissues and glands which secrete chemical messengers to the body called hormones. The glands are aided by the nervous system and chemical receptors in the blood and other hormones produced by other glands. Hormones regulate many functions of the body such as cellular metabolism, reproduction, sugar and mineral homeostasis and digestion.

The nervous system uses sensory receptors, nerves and your brain to control your cells, and acts quickly. The endocrine system uses your circulatory system and hormones to care for your cells and acts more slowly. The reproductive system and endocrine systems use hormones to function. The nervous and endocrine systems are connected by sending information to the hypothalamus and uses the autonomic nervous system to transmit what activity needs to take place in the body. This activity might be what hormones are needed, or what sensations the body feels. While the nervous and endocrine systems send information to the hypothalamus, the reproductive system receives information from the hypothalamus. So all three systems do work together, although

The nervous system is made up of 2 main parts - the spinal cord and the brain. These two parts combine to make the central nervous system and the sensory and motor nerves which form the peripheral nervous system. Neurons process information in the form of electrical signals, namely nerve impulses, which travel along the axon. Charged ions are not able to enter plasma membranes which make neurons have a difference in ion concentration between the inside and the outside of a neuron. This prevents the passive diffusion of Potassium and Sodium ions from areas of high concentration to areas of low concentration. Proteins which act as ion channels and ion pumps are attached to plasma membranes. This allows the ions to be transported across

The central nervous system is composed of the brain and spinal cord and the peripheral nervous system is composed of the body’s sensory receptors, muscles, and glands. The peripheral nervous system is made up of somatic and automatic. Somatic is the voluntary movement of our skeletal muscles. When we hear the bell ring, our somatic nervous system carries the message to the brain and the brain reports back to our muscles. The autonomic nervous system controls our glands and muscles in our internal organs. Some things this nervous system does is taking control of our digestive system and our heart beat. There are two functions of the autonomic nervous system- the sympathetic and the parasympathetic nervous system. The sympathetic nervous system arouses and expands energy. If someone gets excited or nervous in a situation, their blood pressure will rise, their digestion will slow down, their heartbeat will accelerate, their blood sugar will rise, and they will sweat to cool down. The parasympathetic is the opposite. It tries to conserve energy by decreasing your heartbeat, lowering your blood sugar, and so

The nervous and endocrine systems are what control most of the body. The nervous system includes the brain, spinal, cord and nerves. The endocrine system consists of various hormonal glands such as the pituitary. These two systems interact closely since they both have a part in controlling

The endocrine system is slower than the nervous system because hormones must travel through the circulatory system to reach their target.

The Endocrine System is made up of the pituitary gland, thyroid, parathyroid, pancreas, thymus, ovaries, testes, adrenal glands, and the hypothalamus. These glands secrete hormones that help maintain homeostasis in the body. The endocrine system releases hormones that promote growth, development, reproduction, and metabolism.

The endocrine system is a group of glands distributed throughout the human body. This group of glands secretes substances called hormones. These hormones are dumping into the bloodstream (Shier, Butler & Lewis, 2009). The endocrine system does not have a single anatomic location. It is dispersed throughout the human body. The final purpose of this process is to control, regulate, and coordinate the functioning of the human body. Some body functions can be activated or inhibited by hormones, which are secreted in very small quantities. The hormone related diseases may be due to hyper secretion, or a hypo secretion. The hormones secreted by the endocrine glands regulate growth, development and function of many tissues, and coordinate the

Do you know how you were born? Do you know how you came to be? The reproductive system is the system that made that all possible. Without the reproductive system you wouldn’t have been born. In order to produce offspring, the male and female reproductive systems have to be different. Each system has different parts, problems and care. Each system have different purposes, the male reproductive system’s function is to produce sperm, while the female reproductive system’s function is to produce ova, store ova and house a fertilized egg.

Even though the brain is the major control center if the body, its job would not be possible without the spinal cord. The spinal cord is the major organ that helps information travel between the body and the brain. Nerves branch in the peripheral system from, either the brain stem or spinal cord, each nerve attaches to a specific area of the torso and limbs it 's responsible for communication to and from those regions. There are three very important
