Question

Which one of these statements about endocrine and exocrine glands is correct?

Accepted Answer

D. {'text': 'Endocrine release into blood, exocrine release through ducts'}

1. Endocrine glands are **ductless** and pour hormones into the bloodstream.
2. Exocrine glands carry their secretions through **ducts** to a surface or organ (sweat, salivary, gastric).
3. So the correct statement is: endocrine → blood, exocrine → ducts.
4. The other options reverse or misstate this contrast.
