The correct answer is; C. The endocrine system helps to regulate the nervous system.

''The endocrine system helps to regulate the nervous system'' is the statement concerning the endocrine system that is not true.

The endocrine system includes all the glands in the body that produce hormones that regulate various functions in the body such as sleep and mood, growth and development, sexual function, metabolism, and tissue function. The endocrine system is composed of the thyroid gland, adrenal glands, testicles and ovaries, pituitary gland, parathyroid glands and pancreas. The endocrine system has an effect on nearly all the cell and organs within the body. The endocrine system works with the nervous system to regulate the body but it does not help to regulate the nervous system.
