Summary

DIFFERENCES:

-The major difference between the endocrine and exocrine gland is that, an endocrine gland is missing ducts and stays as blocks of tissue. -Endocrine gland secrets chemical substances directly to the blood stream, while exocrine gland secrets its product into a duct. -Endocrine gland secrets chemical substances directly to the blood stream, while exocrine gland secrets its product into a duct. -The hormones produced by endocrine glands circulate through the blood stream and over the body and act on the target, while products of exocrine gland do not circulate all over the body. - These endocrine glands have relatively large blood supply than exocrine glands. -Exocrine glands have more complex structure than endocrine glands.

-Merocrine, holocrine, and apocrine are three different ways of secreting products of exocrine glands into ducts, but endocrine gland do not have such system.

-Responses of endocrine glands are slower than exocrine glands since it travels through the blood stream.

-Endocrine system and nervous system function in a coordinated way to maintain the many physiological body activities, but exocrine system does not.
