Detailed explanation-1: -The endocrine and nervous systems communicate with each other through the hypothalamus, which controls basic drives such as hunger and thirst. The hypothalamus also regulates the pituitary gland, which governs the release of hormones by the body’s other glands.
Detailed explanation-2: -Some examples of endocrine glands are the pituitary, thyroid, and adrenal glands.
Detailed explanation-3: -Which of the following is an example of the endocrine system directly interacting with the nervous system? The vertebrae protect the spinal cord from injury. Hormones provide feedback that affects neural processing. Sensory receptors in bones send signals about body position to the brain.
Detailed explanation-4: -The endocrine system works together with the nervous system to influence many aspects of human behaviour, including growth, reproduction, and metabolism.
