Explanation:

One of the significant difference between the nervous system and endocrine system is that the nervous system uses electrical impulses to send messages through neurons while endocrine glands use hormones to send messages to the target cells through the bloodstream. Here, in this article, let us look at the differences between the nervous system and the endocrine system.

Nervous System vs Endocrine system

Nervous System Endocrine System

Electrical impulses are the messengers in the nervous system Hormones are the chemical messengers in the endocrine system that target cells through the bloodstream

Brain and the spinal cord are involved in the nervous system Glands and organs like thyroid, pituitary glands and reproductive organs (ovaries and testes) are involved in the endocrine system.

Nerve impulses are transmitted through neurons Hormones are transmitted through blood vessels.

The nervous system is under both voluntary and involuntary control The endocrine system is under involuntary control

Nerve impulses make use of the neurotransmitters at synaptic clefts and sodium and potassium channels and enter the target cells. The hormones enter into the target cells by diffusing through the plasma membrane or by binding to the cell receptors

Responses are localised Responses are widespread

Both the nervous system and endocrine system give signals to the internal body parts. Both the systems use the brain as a source but in different ways.

Hopethis helps u.
