Answer:

The correct answer is - thyroid gland.

Explanation:

The thyroid gland is an endocrine gland that releases two hormones that play an important role in cellular activities and energy release. Thyroid glands are located in the neck region.

Thyroid hormones T3 and T4 act on every type of cell present in the body to increase the metabolic activity of cells and organs. Dysfunction of the thyroid gland causes an increase or decrease in cellular activity in body cells.

State two ways in which endocrine glands and exocrine glands differ.
denis-greek [22]

Answer:

The two major differences lies in the function and support system.

Explanation:

The two major differences between an endocrine and an exocrine system are as follows –  

a) An endocrine system releases its produce (hormones) into the connective tissue i.e blood while the exocrine system releases hormones directly into the ducts so that it could reach the targeted tissue directly.  

For example – the Adrenal gland is an endocrine gland that secretes adrenaline directly into the blood. The salivary gland is an exocrine gland that releases its produce into the collecting duct leading to mouth. However, Pancreas is both endocrine and exocrine gland.

b) The endocrine system cannot work alone therefore it works in coordination with the nervous system to control actions and balance the body. However, the exocrine system works independently
