*the human exocrine system*

*’exocrine glands’ are ‘glands’ that ‘produce’ + ‘secrete’ substances onto an ‘epithelial surface’ by way of a ‘duct’*

.

(examples of ‘exocrine glands’ include…) 

‘sweat glands’

‘salivary glands’

‘mammary glands’
“mama mia!”

‘ceruminous glands’

‘lacrimal glands’

‘sebaceous glands’

‘mucous glands’

.

(‘exocrine glands’ are 1 of 2 types of ‘glands’ in the ‘human body’, the other being ‘endocrine glands’, which secrete their products directly into the ‘bloodstream’)

.

(the ‘liver’ + ‘pancreas’ are BOTH ‘exocrine’ AND ‘endocrine’ glands)

they are ‘exocrine glands’ because they secrete ‘products’ – (‘bile’ + ‘pancreatic juice’) – into the ‘gastro-intestinal tract’ through a series of ‘ducts’…)

(…and ‘endocrine’ because they secrete other ‘substances’ directly into the ‘bloodstream’)
