What is the need for a system of control and coordination in an organism?
Control and coordination is important for the survival of living organisms. Control comes under endocrine system by sending chemical messengers called hormones and nervous system composed of neurons which controls our body by sending electrical signals called nerve impulses.
Coordination is working together of various parts of body of multicellular living organisms in a sequence to inhance the functions of each other. Control and coordination is important in organisms so that they can do voluntary, involuntary actions in their biological rhythm cycle (24 hour cycle or sleep-awake cycle).
