The registered nurse instructs the new nurse in orientation regarding the physiologic processes of the endocrine system prior to client assessment. Which statement made by the new nurse indicates effective learning?

The correct statment would be: "the hormons of the endocrine system exert their action by lock and key mechanism."

Explanation:

The endoncrine system is responsable of the release of hormons under certain conditions, and in different organs, they go trough the bloodstream. The lock and key mechanism is explained as how the receptors block or release hormonos or instead they don't. The endocrine system is responsable for the reproductive system, and regulates metabolic processes.
