Question

Using correct medical terminology and at least three terms from each system, describe the connection between the reproductive, endocrine and nervous systems. How does each system support the function of the other systems? When you respond to other students' posts, compare and contrast their description to yours.

Answer 1

The endocrine system is responsible for the production of hormones. The nerves carry the hormones to the target site, so that hormone may exert their action. The reproductive system's growth and functions are mainly dependent upon the hormones, which are delivered by the nerves. Once the hormone reaches its target site, they lead to the expression/blocking of certain pathways/products.
