Glandular tissue, a type of epithelial tissue, is responsible for producing and secreting chemicals and fluids. This tissue forms glands, which can be classified as endocrine glands (releasing hormones directly into the bloodstream) or exocrine glands (secreting substances through ducts to the surface of organs or tissues). Examples of secretions include sweat, saliva, and digestive enzymes.
