Two types of glands found in the skin are the and glands?
Endocrine1. produces hormones which travel along the blood vessels sending signals for metabolism, mood, and many bodily functions; hormones travel inside the body, and are not intended to leave the body through any opening.2. endocrine glands usually release the hormones directly into the blood stream, there are no specific ducts or vessels for them to move out of the gland.3. it's an integrated system of small organs which produce hormones to control many internal bodily functions.Exocrine:1. Many exocrine glands produce liquids, many of which are enzymes, which leave the glands via ducts and empty into a body cavity such as intestine, mouth, or completely exit the body (via duct opening in skin). They have an immediate destination unlike the hormones traveling all over the body via blood vessels.2. Many exocrine glands have special ducts which take the enzyme or liquid produced by the gland to the outside of the body or to a body cavity.3. The exocrine glands operate more independently from other exocrine glands. And the enzymes they produce often work on the outside of the body: the digestive system is inside the body but it is actually a system which transports nutrients external to the body - mouth to anus is like an external long tube containing matter which is not part of the body (food eaten, digested matter, and waste).
