Solution

The correct option is B Endocrine glands
The endocrine gland is called the ductless glands because there are no ducts in the glands. The products such as hormones are secreted and goes directly to the bloodstream. So there is no need for glands to collect and distribute the products, it just goes straight to the blood. Exocrine glands are the ones that do require ducts.
