6. Which of the following summarizes the endocrine system's role?

1.To carry nerve impulses throughout the body in order to maintain homeostasis
2. To receive information about what is happening inside and outside of the body
3. To regulate body activities (like growth and immunity) by sending chemical messages
4. To send electrical messages about how the body should respond to stimuli

Answer 1

Answer:

1. sports medicine

2. gene therapy

3. Adrenal gland

4. false

5. Hormones

6. To regulate body activities (like growth and immunity) by sending chemical messages

Explanation:

1. Sports medicine is the branch of medicine that is related to physical fitness, so if the question ask for someone who is interested in athletic activity, the correct answer is number 4.

2. Gene therapy is an experimental technique that in order to treat or even to prevent disease genes are used to help with their treatment, so a person who is interested in genetics and its relation with health, the correct answer is number 2.

3. Adrenal gland this is the gland that sintetice Adrenaline also known as epinephrine  which is a hormone or also a medicine that plays an important role in the fight or flight response, this hormone is the one in charge of giving us several symptom like tachycardia or dilated pupils in order to survive in dangerous situations, so the correct answer to Sarah's problem is number 1.

4. False the endocrine system serves as a messenger to regulate hormone synthesis and are secreted to the circulatory system.

5. Hormones, as we have answer before hormones are regulated by the endocrine system.

6. To regulate body activities (like growth and immunity) by sending chemical messages hormones play an important part in human development and growth, these chemical messages serve to regulate the synthesis (creation) and secretion (liberation) of the hormones in the specific quantity as the body needs them.
