Solution

The correct option is D

Endocrine glands


The major derivatives of the skin include hair, nails, mammary glands, sweat glands and sebaceous glands. Mammary glands are modified sweat glands. Endocrine glands have no direct association with the skin. They are ductless glands of the body, and pour their secretions directly into the bloodstream.
