what is chemical co-ordination in human being?
Answers
Explanation:
The human body has two interdependent integrating systems in the body, called nervous and endocrine systems.
The endocrine system consists of endocrine glands or ductless glands which integrate the body functions by releasing Chemical Messengers or autocoids or hormones. Thomas Addison is called as the father of endocrinology.
The secretory organs of the body are called as glands. Two types of glands are found in the body of multicellular organisms, viz., exocrine glands and endocrine glands.
The exocrine glands deliver their secretions by means of ducts. Sebacious glands of skin, salivary glands of buccal cavity, gastric glands of stomach, glands of intestine and liver are common examples of exocrine glands.
Answer:
Chemical coordination in human beings occurs through chemical messengers called hormones. It involves various endocrine and exocrine glands and their secretions, hormones. Hormones are secreted by glands directly in blood stream to act at distant sites in the body (target organs).
There are two master glands in the body - hypothalamus and pituitary gland which control the other endocrine glands
