What is the importance of feedback systems in the control of hormonal output? Offer an example of a hormonal feedback pattern.
The nervous and endocrine systems work together to maintain homeostasis. These two systems differ in terms of method of communication, speed of communication, duration of response, target pathway, and actions of effectors.Select the FOUR statements below that describe the endocrine system.
Sends hormones via the bloodstream
Sends hormones via neural pathways or electrochemical transmission
Fast-acting (milliseconds)
Slow-acting (minutes/hours/days)
Causes glands to secrete or muscles to contract
Causes changes in metabolic activities
Acts on specific glands or muscles
Sends hormones to a broad range of target cells
