The correct answer to this question is Endocrine. This system is comprised of different glands. These glands send hormones to the cell that is targeted. The hormones that are sent are messengers that have chemical bodies. One of those glands in the endocrine system is the endocrine gland.

It is responsible for releasing hormones in the bloodstream. Another gland is the pituitary gland. It secretes various types of hormones, which include oxytocin, prolactic, antidiuretic, and thyrotropin.

Along with those two glands, there is the thyroid gland. It secretes thyroid hormones. These hormones include triiodothyronine and thyroxine. Other glands the system have include adrenal glands and pineal glands.

The answer to this is Endocrine. This system of the body is composed of various glands that secrete different types of hormones that can help the body function well. This system is responsible for secreting a certain amount of hormones depending on what people need. For example, there may be some internal processes that are not regulated yet.

The Endocrine system will make sure that they can be regulated with the help of the hormones that they can provide. The glands that make up the endocrine system are the following: thyroid, pituitary, hypothalamus, adrenal glands, pineal, parathyroids, and reproductive glands. If you are having hormonal problems, you may need to have your endocrine system checked.
