You can check out the study guides for chapter 12 (https://player. mheducation. com/#/epub/sn_67e9#epubcfi(%2f6%2f218%5bitem-108%5d! :0)) as well as anatomy and physiology revealed (http://anatomy. mheducation. com/html/apr. html?animal=human&system=nervous ) to study and test your comprehension. The various tissues and organs of the body are all controlled by two systems; the nervous, and the endocrine system. The nervous system uses neurons to connect the brain and spinal cord directly to targets throughout the body. The nervous system conducts information in a very targeted and fast manner. However, the nervous system does not have sole control over body systems. The endocrine system uses chemicals dissolved in blood to send messages around the body to direct the behavior of various tissues.
