Endocrine glands are glands which secrete oil, sweat, enzymes into ducts.

Example: sweat glands, sebaceous glands, digestive gland, mucous.

Correction! Exocrine glands are those which secrete to the outside (can still be inside the body- for example hormones involved in digestion) which have ducts and secrete oil- sebaceous glands. Endocrine glands secrete to hormones the "inside" and DO NOT have ducts, they are ductless.
