The endocrine system is a system of glands that secrete hormones directly into the blood. These hormones effect all sorts of bodily functions such as metabolism, growth, tissue function, sleep, and mood cycles. These hormones effect how your body grows bone and when, how your body developes during puberty, increases and decreases your core temperature, increases muscle growth, promotes healthing, increases or decreases fat storage, stimulates our appetite, tells us when to sleep, helps us deal with pain, supports our ability to become and carry a pregnancy, and so much more....
Also, many organs actually have an endocrine function such as the kidneys, heart, liver, and gonads.

Which organ systems function as control systems communicating with other cells or organs to regulate their activities?
The nervous system and endocrine system function as control systems in the body. The nervous system uses electrical signals to communicate rapidly, while the endocrine system uses hormones to communicate more slowly but for longer durations. Both systems work together to regulate and coordinate the activities of other cells and organs in the body.
What are the two body systems involved in regulation?
The nervous system and the endocrine system are the two major regulatory systems in the body.
What two organ most directly regulates the body system?
Negative feedback mechanism is used by two body systems: the nervous system and the endocrine system. The nervous system is the quick one and uses an intricate circuitry of neurons and your brain to respond to changes. The endocrine system is the slow one and is made up of endocrine glands that secrete hormones to counter changes.
What do both the endocrine and nervous systems allow you to do?
The endocrine and nervous systems allow your body to regulate body functions. The endocrine system does so through hormones, and the nervous system through nervous impulses.
What system controls endocrine system?
Pituaritry gland
What are the two body systems that regulate the body?
The body is regulated by the nervous system and the endocrine system.
Which body system helps the body regulate immune systems?
The endocrine system.
Which of the following systems does not circulate fluids throughout the body endocrine venous arterial lymphatic?
Endocrine system
What are two human body systems which often work together to maintain homeostasis?
The nervous system and endocrine system often work together to maintain homeostasis in the body. The nervous system controls rapid responses to changes in the environment, while the endocrine system regulates slower, long-term changes by releasing hormones into the bloodstream. Together, they help the body maintain a stable internal environment.
What are two body system with which the nervous system interacts?
The respiratory and the endocrine systems.
What system does the endocrine system work with?
The endocrine system works with all of the other systems, including the nervous system, digestive system, and circulatory system. In the nervous system, the endocrine system sends hormones to cells.
What role does endocrine have in the circulatory system?
This system controls many of the biochemical pathways that occur in your body. The core tool used by the endocrine system is a compound called a hormone. Your body uses dozens of hormones to regulate your growth, digestion, body temperature, and glucose metabolism (to name a few). A hormone released by an endocrine gland can travel throughout the body and change the activity of cells from many other systems. The endocrine system is also unique in that it uses glands and cells within organs that are all closely related to other systems.
