Create an analogy describing how 3-4 components of the endocrine system communicate with each other and function effectively. For your analogy, be sure to identify the main glands of the endocrine system and describe their function and explain how control mechanisms of the nervous system regulate endocrine secretion(s). Be thorough in your description and explanation.

An analogy of the endocrine system can be a factory production system, where the Central Nervous System, specifically the hypothalamus, is the coordinating manager, the pituitary is a foreman, and the glands are workers that take care of direct production.

Explanation:

In a factory that manufactures a product "X", the manager receives the order to produce 1000 units. He informs his coordinator who forwards the order to his foreman. Finally, the foreman instructs his workers to start the production of "X".

The Hypothalamus-Pituitary-glandular axis is a system of control over the production of hormones, according to the requirements of the organism:

The production of enough hormones induces negative feedback, where the hypothalamus inhibits the release of gonadotropins by the pituitary gland -which in turn stops the production of hormones at the glandular level- that is, when the 1000 units of "X" are ready, the manager tells the foreman to order the workers to stop production.
