Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Endocrine secretions are released into the interstitial space and diffuse into the bloodstream to travel throughout the body to reach their target cells or organs. Exocrine secretions, such as sweat or digestive enzymes, are released onto a surface or into a hollow organ through a duct. Mucous and serous secretions are subtypes of exocrine secretions and are released onto surfaces, such as the respiratory tract or the lining of the abdomen. Ribosomes are cellular organelles that synthesize proteins and do not secrete substances.
