What is the Difference between nervous coordination and chemical coordination?
Nervous coordination works through the nervous system of organisms - the network of neurons and such. Chemical coordination is hormonal control, and it works through the release of hormones into the blood to flow to target receptor cells.
Secretion of these are regulated by signals from the nervous system and chemical changes in the blood?
Hormones, neurotransmitters, and enzymes are secreted by various glands in response to signals from the nervous system and chemical changes in the blood. These substances help regulate various physiological processes in the body.
How does the sympathetic nervous system regulate blood flow through the process of vasoconstriction or vasodilation?
The sympathetic nervous system regulates blood flow by causing either vasoconstriction, which narrows blood vessels and reduces blood flow, or vasodilation, which widens blood vessels and increases blood flow. This control helps adjust blood flow to different parts of the body based on the body's needs.
How does the sympathetic nervous system contribute to vasodilation in the body?
The sympathetic nervous system triggers the release of a chemical called norepinephrine, which binds to receptors on blood vessels. This binding causes the smooth muscle in the blood vessels to relax, leading to vasodilation, or the widening of the blood vessels. This allows for increased blood flow and helps regulate blood pressure and circulation in the body.
Which systems in the body work together to maintain blood sugar levels?
The endocrine system, which includes the pancreas, and the nervous system work together to regulate blood sugar levels. The pancreas produces insulin and glucagon that control glucose levels, while the nervous system helps in coordinating responses to changes in blood sugar levels.
What advantage does the nervous system have over the endocrine system?
The messages of the nervous system are relayed by nervous impulses, which are very fast and short-acting. In contrast, the messages of the endocrine system are sent via chemical messengers (hormones) distributed by the circulatory system. This distribution in your blood is much slower than the electrical impulses of the nervous system.

Describe how the endocrine and nervous system are related?
The endocrine and nervous system are related because they both work on communication and function. The nervous system provides brief, rapid control by fast moving nerve impulses. The endocrine system works the same way, but provides slow moving, longer lasting control by the way of hormones that are secreted and circulated in the blood. Both systems are connected by the hypothalamus.
What is the name for the chemical messengers in blood that control distant organs?
Hormones.
Is circulating blood a function of the nervous system?
While the nervous system controls the pumping of the heart as well as neurotransmitters and hormones that control vasodilation and vasocontraction, the circulatory system is primarily responsible for circulating blood throughout the body.
What system helps regulate blood pressure and volume?
muscular, endocrine, nervous I believe... I do know that it's not circulatory, respiratory, nervous
Does the thalamus control blood pressure?
The thalamus does not directly control blood pressure. It is primarily involved in relaying sensory and motor signals to the cerebral cortex. Blood pressure is mainly regulated by the brainstem and the autonomic nervous system.
What does the autonomic nervous system not control?
The autonomic nervous system controls the involuntary processes of the body (heart rate, blood pressure, involuntary breathing, parastalsis and intestinal movement, etc.). It does not control voluntary central nervous system functions, such as movement (motor control), sensation, and executive functions (thinking of something and then doing it).
Can anyone explain the different mechanisms that contribute to the regulation of breathing?
Mechanisms that contribute to the regulation of breathing is a sensor / control center that can recognize the change in pH of the cerebrospinal fluid. Which affects the nervous system and chemical signals which are when carbon dioxide rises in the blood?
