Expert Solution
Step 1

Endocrine system is made up of a number of glands which are located all over the body. The main function of these glands is to secrete and release hormones. Hormones are basically the chemical messengers which are released by specialized cells to carry the information from endocrine glands to specific organs or tissues. The endocrine system helps in the metabolism, growth, sleep, maintaining blood pressure etc.
