Question 61 • Psychology ULHS B

Which of the following statements represent communication similarities between the nervous and endocrine systems?

Answer
A
The nervous and endocrine systems both help the body to stay in balance through homeostasis.
B
The nervous and endocrine systems both communicate by sending electrical and chemical messages.
C
The nervous and endocrine systems both have chemical messengers called neurotransmitters.
D
The nervous and endocrine systems both provoke rapid communication between cells.

Explanation

Both systems help maintain homeostasis, the body's internal balance, so statement A describes a similarity. The other statements describe differences: the nervous system uses electrical impulses and chemical neurotransmitters, while the endocrine system communicates with chemical hormones. Endocrine responses are generally slower than nervous-system responses, so they are not both rapid.
