11 1. Endocrine secretions produced by ductless glands into blood or other fluids.
Hormones

12 2. Exocrine secretions discharged through duct onto internal/external surface.
Unicellular -called mucus or goblet cell Multicellular -sweat glands, salivary glands, etc.

13 Structural Types of Exocrine Glands
Simple: communicates with surface with an un-branched duct Compound: branched duct

14 Types of Exocrine Secretions
Merocrine glands fluid product salivary glands pancreas sweat glands Apocrine glands cellular product portions of cells mammary glands ceruminous glands(ear) Holocrine glands secretory products whole cells sebaceous glands
