Chapter 18, Problem 18.1.6AYLO
Summary Introduction
To determine:
The examples of the glands having dual exocrine and endocrine functions, and the secretory cells that cannot be categorized by simple endocrine-exocrine criteria.
Introduction:
Endocrine glands secrete hormones. They do not have ducts. They secrete hormones directly into the bloodstream and are then directed to organs and structures throughout the body. Exocrine glands produce chemical substances into ducts that are either directed to other organs or out of the body.

MATCHING TYPE
COLOUMN A
COLOUMN B
Simple, coiled tubular glands
They mainly serve a thermoregulatory role and maintain body temperature by evaporative heat loss
Their yellow, viscous, oily secretion has an acrid or musky odor
It includes ceruminous glands in the skin
Known as odoriferous sweat glands
They develop in the embryo as invaginations of epidermis
Start to function at puberty and are controlled by sex hormones
They appear first in palms and soles in the fourth gestational month
The duct becomes continuous with a corkscrew-shaped cleft between epidermal cells-
The secretory tubules is lined by simple cuboidal epithelium
A. APPOCRINE
B. ECCRINE
Match the following to their proper description (answers may be used more than once).
Exocrine glands
Endocrine glands
Goblet cells
Goblet cells
Merocrine secretion
Holocrine secretion
Apocrine secretion
Endocrine glands
Mucus
Are unicellular glands.
Have lost connection with the surface epithelium.
Involves exocytosis of proteins or glycoproteins.
Involves the discharge of secretory product with some cytoplasm and plasmalemma.
Involves the disruption and shedding of the whole cell after being filled with secretory product.
Is a hydrated form of the hydrophilic glycoproteins called mucins.
Occur in the lining of the small intestine and the respiratory tract.
Produce hormones.
Retain connection with the surface epithelium.
In pseudostratified epithelial tissue, all of the cells make direct contact with the basement membrane.
