Question

Gland practice: 7. Identify the structural class of each gland described here: 1. Flask-shaped gland, unbranched ducts 2. Slender, straight gland, unbranched ducts 3. Combination of gland shapes 8. Write T in the answer blank if a statement is true. If a statement is false, correct the underlined word(s) by writing the correct word(s) in the answer blank. 1. Exocrine glands are classified functionally as merocrine, holocrine, or apocrine. 2. The above classification refers to the way ducts branch. 3. Most exocrine glands are apocrine. 4. In apocrine glands, secretions are produced and released immediately by exocytosis. 5. Holocrine glands store secretions until the cells rupture. Ruptured cells are replaced through mitosis. 6. In apocrine glands, the secretory cells die when they pinch off at the apex to release secretions. 7. A sweat gland is an example of a holocrine gland. 8. The mammary gland is the most likely example of an apocrine gland. 9. Using the key choices, correctly identify the types of glands described below. Enter the appropriate answers in the answer blanks. Key Choices A. Endocrine B. Exocrine C. Neither of these 1. Duct from this gland type carries secretions to target organ or location 2. Examples are the thyroid and adrenal glands 3. Glands secrete regulatory hormones directly into blood or lymph 4. The more numerous of the two types of glands 5. Duct from ovary that carries ovum (egg) to uterus 6. Examples are the liver, which produces bile, and the pancreas, which produces digestive enzymes
