Answer:

The moonlight we see on Earth is sunlight reflected off the Moon's grayish-white surface. The amount of Moon we see changes over the month — lunar phases — because the Moon orbits Earth and Earth orbits the Sun. ... During a lunar eclipse, Earth comes between the Sun and the Moon, blocking the sunlight falling on the Moon.

ddd [48]

Answer:

1. Endocrine

2. Exocrine

Explanation:

The pancreas serves as both endocrine and exocrine gland.  

The pancreas is an exocrine gland as the pancreatic acini produce digestive enzymes that are delivered to the small intestine through a network of ducts. The glands that release their secretions by ducts are called exocrine glands.  

Islets of Langerhans scattered among pancreatic acini serve the endocrine part of the pancreas. The alpha cells of pancreatic islets secrete hormone glucagon while the beta cells of the islets secrete the hormone insulin directly in the bloodstream. Likewise, the delta cells of pancreatic islets secrete hormone somatostatin. The ductless glands that release their secretions directly into the bloodstream are known as endocrine glands.
