B. False
The endocrine system regulates both long-term processes (growth, development, metabolism, reproduction) and short- to medium-term homeostatic responses (e.g., epinephrine for fight-or-flight, insulin/glucagon for rapid blood glucose control). Some hormones act quickly, others act over days to years.
