The defecation reflex involves two postive feedback loops. these loops are the stretch receptors in the rectal walls and the sacral parasympathetic system. Defecation reflex empties the rectum by peristaltic movements push fecal matter from the sigmoid colon into the rectum. Then this distension of the rectal walls stimulates stretch receptors which results in defecation.
There should be options for this question. I manged to find them elsewhere. They are:
A) the period during which tremendous growth occurs and the organs continue to develop and become functional
B) the period during which the umbilical cord develops
C) the period during which the major organs and structures of the organism first develop
D) the period during which the zygote moves down to the uterus and begins to implant in the lining
The correct answer is C. The embryonic period is the period during which the major organs and structures of the organism first develop. The embryonic period lasts from implantation of the egg in the uterus until about 8 weeks from the time of conception. It is the second major stage of prenatal development, prior to embryonic is the germinal stage and lastly is the fetal stage.

Brain, spinal cord, nerves
The brain controls thought, behavior, emotion, memory, and basic life functions. The brain is also the origin of control over body movement. The spinal cord connects the peripheral nervous system (PNS) to the brain; nerve impulses reaching the spinal cord through sensory neurons are transmitted up into the brain. Nerves primarily involve control and coordination of all parts of the body.
The nervous system interacts with every other organ system. For example the hypothalamus in the brain controls the pituitary gland and tells it when to produce hormones, this shows that the nervous system interacts with the endocrine system.
Hope this helps :)
