the pancreas
The gland that has no duct and secretes its product directly into the blood is the endocrine gland. Examples of endocrine glands include the pituitary gland, thyroid gland, and adrenal gland.

I think the student wanted to ask about the difference between an exocrine and endocrine gland but mistakened and wrote both the same. Exocrine gland differ from Endocrine gland because in case of exocrine glands ezymes are secreted by ducts carrying them to their site of actions but in case of endocrine hormones are secreted in body without ducts and are cariied by circulatory fluid of the organism.
A simple gland consists of a single unbranched duct, while a compound gland has a branched duct system. Tubular glands have a tube-like structure, while alveolar glands have a round, sac-like structure. Alveolar glands are also known as acinar glands and contain clusters of secretory cells that form small sacs.

The Cowper's gland is not an endocrine gland. It's an exocrine gland with a duct.

It's no duct
Endocrine glands are glands of the endocrine system that secrete their products, hormones, directly into the blood rather than through a duct. The major glands of the endocrine system include the pineal gland, pituitary gland, pancreas, ovaries, testes, thyroid gland, parathyroid gland, hypothalamus and adrenal glands.
Exocrine glands are any glands that deposit their secretions through a duct onto a body surface. Because sweat is deposited onto the surface of our skin it would be considered an exocrine gland. Endocrine glands secrete directly into our bloodstream.

Endocrine glands are glands of the endocrine system that secrete their products, hormones, directly into the blood rather than through a duct. The main endocrine glands include the pituitary gland, pancreas, ovaries, testes, thyroid gland, and adrenal glands. The hypothalamus is a neuroendocrine organ. Other organs which are not so well known for their endocrine activity include the stomach, which produces such hormones as ghrelin.
The sweat pore is were the sweat from the sweat gland is released. The main function of sweat is temperature regulation (thermoregulation).
The pancreas releases hormones glucagon and insulin into the blood stream like all other endocrine organs, but also releases digestive enzymes into the intestine. Since the intestine is considered 'outside' that is an exocrine function.
The posterior pituitary gland is a ductless gland. Unlike many other glands in the body, instead of the hormone passing down a duct into the blood, it passes straight into the bloodstream.
