What is an emphatic system?

If you are seeing "emphatic system" as an answer option in a multiple choice question [in regard to anatomy or physiology] it is a false answer (pink herring). It sounds like a good option and is close to the lymphatic system. Example: The adrenal glands are part of the: a) immune system b) endocrine system c) emphatic system d) respiratory system The correct answer for this question is: b) endocrine system

Running to escape danger is an action that requires the nervous system to coordinate the interaction of which two body systems?

muscular and skeletal ^^ FAIL. The two organ systems that control and coordinate the 50 trillion cells in a human are actually the nervous system, and endocrine system. 100% positive. Go anatomy and physiology kids:)
