Unlike the nervous system, the affects of the endocrine systems control is slower, but has a longer-lasting influence in the body. It utilizes the use of hormones that are secreted directly into the blood from ductless glands. This is the main way the body regulates metabolism, reproduction, growth and development, maintains fluid and electrolyte, acid-base, and energy balances.
