A scheme presents an exocrinous gland that has unbranched excretory duct with a terminal part in form of a saccule opening into the duct. How is this gland called according to the morphological classification of exocrinous glands?
- A. Compound unbranched alveolar
- B. Simple branched tubular
- C. Compound branched alveolar
- D. Compound unbranched alveolar tubular
- E. Simple unbranched alveolar
Hint
Classify the gland in two separate steps: first by whether the excretory duct branches, then by the shape of the terminal secretory portion.
The answer, the explanation and a note on every option are available once you log in. The account is free: topic tests, a mock exam, mistake review and statistics.
