Detailed explanation-1: -The answer is true. Glands are considered organized collectives of secretory epithelial cells.
Detailed explanation-2: -The pancreas has both an endocrine and an exocrine function. The exocrine pancreas assists in food digestion by releasing a secretion rich in bicarbonate, which helps to neutralize the acidic environment created in the stomach. The secretion also includes digestive enzymes.
Detailed explanation-3: -Unicellular Exocrine Glands The goblet cell, located in the epithelial lining of the small and large intestines and of the conducting portion of the respiratory tract, is the principal example of a unicellular exocrine gland (Fig. 5.9). The narrow base of the goblet cell, known as the stem, contacts the basal lamina.
