Detailed explanation-1: -Glandular epithelium, also known as glandular tissue, refers to a type of epithelial tissue involved in the production and release of different secretory products, such as sweat, saliva, breast milk, digestive enzymes, and hormones, among many other substances.
Detailed explanation-2: -Glandular epithelium is a type of epithelial tissue found on the outer and inner surfaces of organs. They are secretory and hence produce different chemicals such as saliva, hormones, sweat, etc. These are connected to various ducts that later mature into endocrine and exocrine glands.
Detailed explanation-3: -Overview. There are 4 basic types of tissue: connective tissue, epithelial tissue, muscle tissue, and nervous tissue. Connective tissue supports other tissues and binds them together (bone, blood, and lymph tissues). Epithelial tissue provides a covering (skin, the linings of the various passages inside the body).
Detailed explanation-4: -Compound (Stratified) Epithelium-it is made up of two or more than two layers of cells and mostly has a protective function. The glandular epithelium is made up of cuboidal or columnar cells. They are specialised for secretion.
