Answer:
The statement that best represents similarities in communication between the nervous and endocrine systems is that nervous and endocrine systems both help the body to stay in balance through homeostasis (option A).
Explanation:
The nervous system (NS) is responsible for coordinating all body activity, including the hormonal activity provided by the endocrine system.
When NS detects a change or imbalance in the body, it sends signals, via the autonomic nervous system, to the endocrine glands, whose hormones contribute to correcting the change, thus helping to maintain homeostasis.
The other options are not correct, due to
:
- <em>The nervous system communicates only through neurotransmitters and electrical signals.
</em>
- <em>The endocrine system communicates only through chemical messages, the hormones.
</em>
- <em>The rapid communication between cells is not the most notable effect of the interaction between the nervous and endocrine systems.</em>
