Is the large intestine A GLAND?
its the pancreas. its mixed coz it has both exocrine(which swcretes digestive juices) and endocrine part(insulin and glucagon hormones)
The pituitary gland is located below the hypothalamus. Both the anterior and posterior lobes release hormones such as ACTH and thyroxin.
There is no gland called parsolene, instead there are Bartholin's glands located on opening of a vagina. There are also parotid glands located in front of each ear.
The Large Intestine
The bilobed endocrine gland located over and also lateral to the trachea and the larynx is called the thyroid gland. Also embedded in the thyroid gland on each side are two parathyroid glands.
The hypophysis is an endocrine gland in the skull. Also called pituitary gland, it connects hypothalamus with all endocrine glands.
The pancreas secretes juices into the small intestine!
The pancreas is a mixed gland because it has both endocrine and exocrine secretions. On the endocrine side there is insulin and glucagon to regulate our blood sugar levels. One the exocrine side the pancreas produces a number of digestive enzymes which empty into the duodenum of the small intestine to chemically digest our ingested foodstuffs.
