What are the hormonal responses and describe them?
The hormonal responses are basically responses or reactions given by the hormones. This response is triggered by either negative or positive feedback mechanism. When the hormone level is too low, the gland (usually endocrine) releases the hormones into the bloodstreams where it travels until it reaches the target organ. When there are too much hormones, the gland is triggered to stop the release of hormones. This mechanism of maintaining the balance without giving excess amount of hormone is known as negative feedback. In a positive feedback, the gland is triggered to release more hormones when excess amount of hormones is present.
Why are hormonal reactions generally slower than nervous reactions?
Hormones are distributed through the body by means of blood circulation, and it takes some time for a hormone that is secreted in one location of the body to diffuse through the blood sufficiently that it will reach some other specific location. In comparison, nerve impulses travel very quickly, almost instantaneously as far as our human time scale is concerned.The nervous system responses are electrical while the hormonal responses have to be released into the bloodstream
