In a single person there are seven major endocrine glands: Pineal gland (brain), pituitary gland (brain), pancreas (abdomen), thyroid gland (throat), thymus (chest), adrenal gland (abdomen), ovary in females (abdomen), and testis in males (groin). The exocrine glands are sweat glands, mammary glands, salivary glands, and the liver.
The glands that are found in membranes that line internal body cavities are serous glands.
The modified sebaceous glands that produce milk are known as mammary glands. These glands are found in mammals and are responsible for secreting milk to nourish their offspring.
In females, the major glands include the mammary glands (breasts), ovaries, and the reproductive system glands such as the Bartholin's glands, Skene's glands, and the cervix glands. These glands play important roles in reproductive functions, hormone production, and sexual health.
The glands exclusively found in the ear canal are ceruminous glands. These specialized sebaceous glands secrete earwax, or cerumen, which helps protect the ear canal by trapping dust, debris, and microorganisms. Ceruminous glands are modified apocrine glands and play a crucial role in maintaining ear health.
The tubular glands found between the bases of the intestinal villi are called crypts of Lieberkühn. These glands secrete mucus, enzymes, and hormones that aid in digestion and nutrient absorption in the small intestine.
The adrenal glands.
Meibomian glands
duodenal glands
The gastric glands are found between the rugae. These glands are lined with different cells that contribute to the formation of gastric juice.
Thick skin found on the palms of the hands and the soles of the feet have no sebaceous glands. The glands are found with hair follicles.
Both endocrine and apocrine sweat glands are found in the armpit. Apocrine sweat glands are found almost everywhere, while endocrine glands are found in the genetial region and the auxillary region.
