Solution

The correct option is B

Exocrine gland


Glands without ducts are called "ductless" or "endocrine" glands. They release their secretions directly into the bloodstream. The pituitary is the master endocrine gland which regulates the secretions of other endocrine glands such as the pancreas, thyroid gland, gonads, adrenal glands, etc. The secretions of endocrine glands are called hormones. The ovaries are the endocrine glands present in the female reproductive system. Ovaries produce and release two groups of sex hormones: progesterone and oestrogen.
