What is something that nerves and hormones have in common?
Hormones are released by glands which are part of the endocrine system. Hormones are secreted into the blood where they reach their target cells through mass flow, taking a lot more time than a nervous impulse. Hormones can work antagonistically (against each other) such as insulin and glucagon, and often function in a negative feedback system, such as the secretion of ADH. Nervous co-ordination involves fast, electrical impulses via specialised cells called neurones. Mostly initiated by the brain (the heart is a big exception being made of myogenic tissue) and often involve the spinal cord as part of a reflex arc. Hormones will often have a prolonged effect on the body whereas nervous co-ordination is instantaneous. Main differences; Nerves: fast, short, electrical Hormones: slow, long, chemical
What are the names of the nerves that are responsible for transmitting signals between the brain and the rest of the body?
The nerves responsible for transmitting signals between the brain and the rest of the body are called the cranial nerves and the spinal nerves.
What class of nutrient produces certain hormones and forms a coating on nerves?
Lipids, specifically phospholipids, are the class of nutrient that can produce certain hormones and form a coating on nerves. These essential fats play a crucial role in cellular structure and signaling, including hormone production and nerve insulation.
What are the main differences between the posterior and anterior pituitary glands in terms of their functions and hormone secretion?
The main differences between the posterior and anterior pituitary glands are in their functions and hormone secretion. The posterior pituitary mainly stores and releases hormones produced by the hypothalamus, such as oxytocin and vasopressin, while the anterior pituitary produces and releases its own hormones, including growth hormone, thyroid-stimulating hormone, and adrenocorticotropic hormone.
What are the differences in hematocrit levels between males and females?
In general, males tend to have higher hematocrit levels than females. Hematocrit levels measure the percentage of red blood cells in the blood, and this difference is due to factors such as hormones and differences in body size and muscle mass between males and females.
Differences between hormones and vitamins?
You can not hear the Vitamin !
What are the differences between a neuron and a nerve?
You can get on somebody's nerves, but not on their neurons. Neurons are within the brain. Nerves are the messaging paths from the brain to the body.
Why use nerves and hormones?
Without hormones, many functions cannot happen in your body. If you don't have hormones, you will get Diabetes. Without nerves, you cannot touch anything or feel anything.
Are there physical differences between boys and girls?

How brain control our body?
Via voluntary nerves, via autonomic nerves, and via hormones.
What controles the other body systems?

What is the nutrient that forms a coating on nerves?
The class of nutrient that is necessary for production of certain hormones and that forms a coating on nerves is
How do the endocrine and nervous systems work together?
Nerves tell glands when to release chemicals. Nerves send messages to glands. Apex- Nerves instruct glands to send out hormones.

How are the messages of the endocorine system moved around the body?
By blood (hormones) and nerves (autonomic).
