Two control systems of the body

Endocrine and Nervous

Endocrine and nervous system similarities

-Work together to maintain homeostasis

-Release ligands (chemical messengers) that bind to cellular receptors on particular target cells

Endocrine and nervous system differences

Endocrine system: -Transmits hormones through blood

-Targets any cell in the body with the correct receptor

-Very widespread

-Exhibits longer reaction times and has longer-lasting effects

Endocrine System

-Composed of ducts and glands that synthesize and secrete hormones

-Hormones are released into the blood and transported throughout the body

Endocrine system regulation growth and development

-Changes measured from birth to puberty

-Hormones help regulate embryonic cell division and differentiation

-Hormones regulate metabolism

How does the endocrine system maintain homeostasis or blood composition and volume

-Hypothalamus

-Hormones regulate blood solute concentrations (ex glucose ions)

-Hormones regulate blood volume, cellular concentration, and platelet numbers

The endocrine system controlling digestive processes

-Trigger digestion when food is in the stomach

-Hormones influence secretory processes and movement of materials in the digestive tract

Endocrine System controlling Reproductive Activities

-Make sure sperm and egg make it to each other

-Hormones affect the development and function of the reproductive system and the expression of sexual behavior

Endocrine Glands

Contain epithelial tissue that makes and releases hormones within a connective tissue framework

Endocrine Organs

-Glands with solely endocrine functions

-Ex: Pituitary, pineal, thyroid, parathyroid, and adrenal

Endocrine Cells

-Found in clusters in organs with another function

-Examples in Hypothalamus, Thymus, Heart, Stomach, Liver, Pancreas, Small Intestine, Adipose Connective Tissue

-Pancreases is not an endocrine gland, but it does release hormones
