Detailed explanation-1: -The endocrine system is regulated by negative feedback mechanisms that work to maintain homeostasis. The concentration of hormones, and how they effect other body systems, are controlled in this manner.
Detailed explanation-2: -Hypothalamus: The hypothalamus (hi-po-THAL-uh-mus) is in the lower central part of the brain. It links the endocrine system and nervous system. Nerve cells in the hypothalamus make chemicals that control the release of hormones secreted from the pituitary gland.
Detailed explanation-3: -The Endocrine system maintains homeostasis by producing hormones. These hormones are sent to different glands and organs which in turn make changes that help the body remain in balance. For example, the thyroid gland is an endocrine gland that helps to control metabolism.
