How does endocrine and nervous system help maintain homeostasis?
Yes the brain sends messages to the endocrine system to release whatever the body needs. Later the nervous system signals the endocrine system to stop releasing the hormone when the body does not need anymore. this is called negative feedback.The nervous and endocrine systems work together when the endocrine system stimulates the brain, which in turn stimulates hormone-producing organs.Nerves instruct glands to send out hormones-APEX
How does the nervous system react to stimuli compared to the endocrine system?
I am currently studying this in Biology 3/4. The endocrine system is slower than the nervous system because hormones must travel through the circulatory system (bloodstream) to reach their target whereas the nervous system acts by using neurotransmitters (chemical messengers) which act impulsively (no delay) Crepusculum (:

Characteristics of endocrine system?
One interesting fact is that the endocrine system has no ducts. Therefore, the hormones it produces are released directly into the bloodstream. The blood then carries it to the various parts. Also, the endocrine system is responsible for producing 30 distinct hormones. All these hormones have very distinct jobs to do. The rush of adrenaline one gets when facing adventure or fear is the result of the adrenal glands production of epinephrine hormone, or adrenaline as we otherwise know it. We must be thankful to the pineal gland for our sweet sleep. It secretes melatonin which regulates our sleep. It is responsible for the production of insulin. The failure to produce insulin will result in diabetes. The endocrine is the secret behind your energy levels thanks to the thyroid glands. The thyroid glands also help in metabolism. The hypothalamus is the one that makes you feel hunger and thirst. It also helps in body temperature. It aids the immune system by helping the body build resistance to disease. The human behavior is also controlled by the endocrine system when it affects the nervous system. It is accountable for sexual characteristics and development. It is the key player in regulating menstrual cycle and ovulation in women. It even plays a role in pregnancy by stimulating contractions during delivery. In fact, the endocrine system has a hand in almost all functions of the human body.

How is the endocrine system and the cardiovascular system interdependent?
The endocrine system is the source of various hormones; the cardiovascular system is it's distribution system. Some of those hormones effect the C-V system, but never enough to alter it's distribution function.
What is hormone secretion?
Endocrine glands secrete hormones.
What are facts about the endocrine system?
Helps maintain Homeostasis. It also regulates metabolism, water, and mineral balance.Here are some facts about endocrine system: 1. the glands of the endocrine system and their secretion (or the hormones they produce) influence cell and function of our body.2. Glands in endocrine system secrete major hormones directly in the bloodstream. Important glands of endocrine system include: hypothalamus, pituitary, thyroid, adrenals etc..3. The hormones (which are often called chemical messengers) that are released by glands in endocrine system are very crucial to regulating different systems of our body including our mood and growth. I think there are more than 20 major hormones which are secreted by glands in endocrine system.4. Endocrine system controls the body processes that happen slowly, like cell growth.5. Glands from this system form signaling pathways. (endocrine signaling?)Well i dont really know but i will tell you this. look on other websites and they will give you the answer. or you could grab a health book and look there or just ask your teacher. So start searching. Hope i help give you ways to search for the answer.
What are the nervous system and the endocrine system different?
The endocrine system is a group of various glands and hormones that help your body respond and function properly. For example, the endocrine system helps with the normal body activities for instance, the sleeping cycle. The nervous system: well I really don't know because I have'nt learned about that material yet in my science class. Sorry for the inconvience!! Probally look on a different website
