The answer is the third one (or C): endocrine system.

Explanation for each option:

  • Muscular: This system is responsible for movement and stability of the body, not for secreting hormones.
  • Digestive: This system is responsible for breaking down food and absorbing nutrients, not for secreting hormones.
  • Endocrine: This system contains glands that secrete hormones to regulate growth, reproduction, and metabolism, which matches the description in the question.
  • Cardiovascular: This system is responsible for circulating blood and transporting nutrients, oxygen, and waste products, not for secreting hormones.

Summary: The organ system that contains glands that secrete hormones to regulate growth, reproduction, and metabolism is the endocrine system.
