Assignment Help:

Why is the endocrine system considered one of the integrative systems of the body? What is the other physiological system that also has this function?

The endocrine system is said to have integrative character as the hormones formed by the endocrine glands are substances that act at a distance and lots of them act in dissimilar organs of the body. So the endocrine glands receive information from some regions of the body and they can make effects in other regions providing functional integration for the body.
