What else can I help you with?
What system regulates the body's metabolism growth and functions of the sexual organs?
The Endocrine System.
What organ system includes ovaries?
Reproductive system and endocrine system. Your ovaries produce the ovum for reproductive system. The ovary produce the estrogen and progesterone hormones for the regulation of the monthly cycle and are necessary for the reception and maintenance of the pregnancy.
Do ovaries belong to the reproductive system or to the endocrine system?
The ovaries are part of both the reproductive system and the endocrine system. Their reproductive function is the production of eggs (ova), and their endocrine function is the production of sex hormones (primarily estrogen and progesterone, but also testosterone).Ovaries produce estrogen and progesteron, so I guess it's safe to assume that they are part of the endocrine system.
How is the reproductive system and endocrine system similar?
The endocrine system controls the functioning of the reproductive system. The responsible endocrine glands are known as the gonads. The gonads secrete sex hormones, which are responsible for sexual development, and the associated growth spurts in the body. They are also responsible for the development of secondary sexual characteristics. Other hormones also affect the functioning of the reproductive system. These include the gonadotropin releaseing hormones from the hypothalamus, the pituitary hormones like prolactin, insulin from the pancreas, and thyroxine from the thyroid.
What is the disease of sex hormones?
This would be an endocrine disorder.
What two systems work with the endocrine system?
The endocrine system works with many biological systems. I guess the two most prevalent systems would be the nervous system and the reproductive system. The nervous system is responsible for receiving information that results in hormone changes within the body. The reproductive system contains sex organs that produce or regulate very powerful sex hormones (testosterone, estrogen).
Why the ovaries and testes are part of both the endocrine system and the reproductive system?
Ovaries and testes share the attribute of producing both the gametes, or sex cells, required for reproduction, as well as hormones involved in the endocrine system. Because they participate in both systems, they're regarded as being part of both systems.
The female sex glands that store the ova and produce the female sex hormones?
The female sex glands that store the ova and produce female sex hormones are the ovaries. They play a crucial role in the reproductive system by releasing eggs for fertilization and producing hormones such as estrogen and progesterone.
What has the author Harold Persky written?
Harold Persky has written: 'Psychoendocrinology of human sexual behavior' -- subject(s): Endocrine aspects, Endocrine aspects of Sex (Psychology), Hormones, Physiology, Psychoneuroendocrinology, Psychophysiology, Sex (Psychology), Sex Behavior, Sex Hormones
What does the endocrine system and the reproductive system have in common?
It isn't. The hypothalamus of the brain controls the hormone release in the pituitary, the master control of the endocrine system. The endocrine system releases hormones that affect cells in the nervous system. The systems are integrated and linked in numerous ways, but they are entirely different systems.
What structures are part of both the endocrine system and reproductive systems?
The ovaries and testes are structures that are part of both the endocrine system and reproductive system. They secrete hormones such as estrogen and testosterone, which play a role in regulating both the reproductive and endocrine systems.
What organ system does gonads belong to?
The gonads belong to the reproductive system. They are responsible for producing gametes (sperm in males and eggs in females) and sex hormones.
