2. The nervous system can respond quickly to stimuli, through the use of action potentials and neurotransmitters. Responses to nervous system stimulation are typically quick but short lived. The endocrine system responds to stimulation by secreting hormones into the circulatory system that travel to the target tissue.

Spinal cord is a bundle of neurons which starts from the brain and runs down the entire length of the back of the body. The spinal cord acts as a main means to transmit the messages between the brain and the body.
