Answer:

The differences are given below ↓

Nervous System

  • Electrical impulses are the messengers in the nervous system
  • Brain and the spinal cord constitute the nervous system
  • Nerve impulses are transmitted through neurons
  • The nervous system is under both voluntary and involuntary control
  • Nerve impulses make use of the neurotransmitters at synaptic clefts and sodium and potassium channels and enter the target cells
  • Responses are localised

Chemical (Endocrine) System

  • Hormones are the chemical messengers in the endocrine system that target cells through the bloodstream
  • Glands and organs like thyroid, pituitary glands and reproductive organs (ovaries and testes) are involved in the endocrine system
  • Hormones are transmitted through blood vessels
  • The endocrine system is under involuntary control
  • The hormones enter into the target cells by diffusing through the plasma membrane or by binding to the cell receptors
  • Responses are widespread

yarga [219]

A series of programmed changes encoded in dna, through which a fertilized egg divides into many cells that ultimately are transformed into an adult organism, is known as <u>development.</u>

A fertilized egg first divides into a mass of cells called the morula. After about 5 days of fertilization, it forms a hollow ball of cells called the blastocyst. The cells in the outer layer of the blastocyst develops into the placenta and the inner mass of cells forms the tissues of the embryo. Cells of the inner most layer differentiate into the ectoderm forming the skin and the brain, mesoderm forming the muscles, bone, heart, kidney and the endoderm forming the gut lining, liver and the pancreas. This is called the complete development of the fertilized egg into the fetus.
