Question

How do the central nervous system and the endocrine system work together to

Answer 1

Answer:

The central nervous system receives information from the external and internal media, and upon any change or alteration sends an order to the endocrine system to compensate for the change, working together to maintain homeostasis.

Explanation:

The central nervous system (CNS) is in charge of coordinating and regulating the activity of the whole organism, including the activity of the endocrine system.

• The body has multiple internal and external receptors that perceive any change or alteration of the internal environment, and transmit it to the CNS.  
• In the CNS the information is processed and a response is elaborated, which is sent to the effector organs.
• If the change or alteration requires being regulated by hormones, the effector is the endocrine system, in charge of synthesizing and secreting those hormones.

This coordinated work that exists between the CNS and the endocrine system makes it possible to correct any imbalance in the internal environment and to maintain homeostasis.
