Answer:

The nervous system sends electrical signals while the endocrine system communicates through hormones.

Step-by-step explanation:

Nerves are made up of very specialized cells, which send signals very quickly from tissue to the brain. The endocrine system is responsible for communicating using hormones, which have a more widespread effect. The effect of these hormones affects every cell they come into contact with, which can change how these cells functions. Cells use hormones to communicate with each other as well, as they are often separated by empty space.
