Which option best explains the combined importance of the nervous and endocrine systems?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: One gives a quick response and the other gives slower but longer-lasting control
The nervous and endocrine systems coordinate body functions in complementary ways. The nervous system transmits rapid electrical signals for immediate, targeted responses, such as withdrawing from danger. Endocrine glands release hormones into the blood; these act more slowly but may influence several organs and last longer. Thus option A correctly describes their combined importance. The remaining choices assign unrelated or impossible functions to both systems.
