Question: Exocrine glands are classified functionally are merocrine, holocrine, and apocrine.

Answer: ...

Question: The above classification refers to the way to secrete their products.

Answer: ...

Question: Most exocrine glands are merocrine.

Answer: ...

Question: In merocrine glands, secretions are produced and released immediately by exocytosis.

Answer: ...

Question: Holocrine glands store secretions until the cells rupture.

Answer: ...

Question: In apocrine glands, the secretory cell repairs when they pinch off at the apex to release secretions.

Answer: ...

Question: A sweat gland is an example of merocrine gland.

Answer: ...

Question: The mammary gland is the most likely example of an apocrine gland.

Answer: ...

Question: Exocrine

Answer: Duct from this gland type carries secretions to target organ or location.

Question: Endocrine

Question: Endocrine

Answer: Glands secrete regulatory hormones directly into blood or lymph.

Question: Exocrine

Answer: the more numerous of the two types of gland

Question: Exocrine

Answer: Examples are the liver, which produces bile, and the pancreas, which produces digestive enzymes

Question: Endocrine and exocrine glands are formed from epithelium tissue.

Answer: ...

Question: Unicellular exocrine glands called goblet cells are found in the intestinal mucosae, where they secrete mucus, a lubricating water-soluble glycoprotein.

Answer: ...

Question: Multicellular glands are composed of three structures: duct, secretory units, supportive connective tissue.
