Explain how the nervous system and endocrine system interact with each other (be sure to discuss at least three ways in your response).

The nervous system and the endocrine system interact with each other in a number of ways, these include:

1. The endocrine system is the communication gadget of the human body, it works together with the nervous system to communicate with all other organs in the body.

2. Two out of the three major organs that regulate the functions of endocrine glands [hypothalamus, pituitary gland and adrenal gland] are located in the brain which is part of the nervous system.

3. Reproductive hormones secreted by endocrine glands affect and determine the development of the nervous system.
