Introduction To The Endocrine System[edit] The endocrine system is a control system of ductless glands that secrete hormones within specific organs. Hormones act as messengers, and are carried by the bloodstream to different cells in the body, which interpret these messages and act on them.
The Structure of the Endocrine System. The endocrine system is composed of the following endocrine glands; thyroid, parathyroid, pituitary, pineal and adrenal.The endocrine glands secrete hormones, which are messenger molecules, into the interstitial fluid in the bloodstream.These released hormones affect nearly every cell, organ, and function of the human body.or example, the endocrine system influences things like cell growth, whilst faster processes, like breathing are controlled by the nervous system. The nervous and endocrine systems are different systems, yet are complementary systems and work together to help the body function properly.
