Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The endocrine system works together with the nervous system to influence many aspects of human behaviour, including growth, reproduction, and metabolism. And the endocrine system plays a vital role in emotions.

Detailed explanation-2: -Endocrine glands make chemicals called hormones and pass them straight into the bloodstream. Hormones can be thought of as chemical messages. From the blood stream, the hormones communicate with the body by heading towards their target cell to bring about a particular change or effect to that cell.

Detailed explanation-3: -In addition to the nervous system, the endocrine system relays messages throughout the body via chemical messenger molecules released by glands into the bloodstream. These molecules, called hormones, act slowly compared to the rapid transmission of electrical messages by the nervous system.
