Solution
Exocrine glands:
Exocrine glands exude materials onto an epithelial surface through a duct.
The most prevalent exocrine secretion types are merocrine secretions.
These secretions are contained in vesicles, which go to the apical surface of cells and discharge their contents through exocytosis.
For instance, a merocrine secretion is a liquid mucus that contains the mucin glycoprotein, a lubricant that provides multiple pathogen defenses.
