What else can I help you with?
Can you think of an action where your brain is not involved?
All simple reflexes. The chemistry of your gut and liver. (digestion)
What is the main link between the nervous system and endocrine system?
ganglionAnswerThe most straight-forward answer would be the hypothalamus, because in simple terms, the hypothalamus controls the pituitary gland and the pituitary gland is the "master gland" of the endocrine system. But you could probably have a nice long discussion about what exactly counts as a link between the nervous and endocrine systems. Is it a functional link? A structural one? Does the question force the answerer to draw an arbitrary line dividing organs of the nervous and endocrine systems?
What are the reflexes classification according to biological importance for organisms?
Reflexes can be classified into two main categories based on their biological importance: simple and complex reflexes. Simple reflexes, such as the knee-jerk response, involve a direct connection between sensory and motor neurons and are crucial for immediate survival, helping organisms react quickly to stimuli. Complex reflexes, such as those involving learned behaviors, engage higher brain functions and facilitate adaptation to changing environments. Both types are essential for the overall functioning and survival of organisms.
Simple reflexes are controlled by the?
Simple reflexes are controlled by the spinal cord and do not involve higher brain centers. They are automatic, rapid responses to stimuli that help us react quickly to potential danger or harm. Examples include the knee-jerk reflex and eye blinking.
What tissue are glands composed of?
Glands are composed of epithelial tissue. These specialized cells can secrete substances such as hormones, enzymes, or sweat. Glands can be classified as exocrine glands, which secrete their products into ducts, or endocrine glands, which secrete hormones directly into the bloodstream.

Which portion of the human brain mediates simple reflexes such as sneezing coughing and salivating?
The medulla oblongata is a part of the brain stem involved in these reflexes. And no your eyes will not pop out if you sneeze with them open. Closing the eyes is part of the reflex and you have no control over reflexes.

What if the function of the pancreas?
The pancreas is a glandular organ in the digestive system and endocrine system located in the abdominal cavity behind the stomach. It is an endocrine gland producing several important hormones, including insulin, glucagon, somatostatin, and pancreatic polypeptide, all of which circulate in the blood. Or- if you want the simple version; As part of the endocrine system, the pancreas secretes two main hormones that are vital to regulating your glucose (also known as blood sugar) level :/
What kind of hormones are present in saliva?
basically, the homone present in the siliver is ptylin hormone the ptylin hormone is produced in the silivery gland and it helps in the breaking down of complex sugar into simple sugar.

What part of the brain controls simple reflexes that do not involve the brain?
spinal cord
How does the endocrine system interact with the circulatory system interact?
The endocrine system releases hormones into the bloodstream, where they travel to target cells or organs to regulate various physiological processes. The circulatory system facilitates the transport of hormones to their target sites and also helps remove waste produced by endocrine glands. Together, both systems work to maintain homeostasis and regulate the body's functions.
Simple reflexes are controlled by the?
Simple reflexes are controlled by the spinal cord and do not involve higher brain centers. They are automatic, rapid responses to stimuli that help us react quickly to potential danger or harm. Examples include the knee-jerk reflex and eye blinking.

What part of your nervous system control simple reflexes?
The autonomic nervous system does. It works at the level of the spinal cord.
What is the need of endocrine glands?
The importance of having endocrine glands and having them functional is essential to the body's ability to maintain homeostatic levels for all cellular systems to enable communication between neuortransmitters within the brain and the hormones produced by the endocrine gladular system. For example if we did not have an endocrine system to contribute to the role of a homeostatic environment for which our cells within our body, including every organ, we would not be able to maintain proper body temperature, eliminate waste effectively, control our blood pressure and the hormones (antidiuretic) would not be working properly or at all and lead to storage of waste and retention of water and bloating which in itself can become fatal as the blood pressure is deregulated by the lack of corresponding hormones produced by the endocrine system. It is through the endocrine system that females get their genetic make up for appearance (less body hari or faicial hair ususally, and why men have an increased sex drive, are more likely to get their work done or become type "A" personalities, have an excess of testosterone from over production of this hormone which is controlled in the endocrine system and this can also lead to higher leves of aggression even without cause. With females, the endocrine system is important in detecting ovulation by a slight increase in body temperature when a woman ovulates as well as monitoring the elimination of wastes and the avoidance of bloating and water retention, and certain hormones in certain glands trigger the the release or inhibition of other hormones being excreted in the body to keep the body as close to homeostasis for overall health all the time and especially throughout a woman's pregnancy. Mostly the endocrine system helps with blood pressure homeostasis as well as body temperature, regulation of menstruation, waste elimination and absorption of important nutrients all to maintain a balance in our bodies for reaching maximum health. The pancreas is part of the endocrine system as it controls and releases insulin to help the boy break down simple sugars and simple starches into sugars and remove them from the blood adequately so that one does not suffer from any type of improper blood-sugar levels which implicate diabetes.
