Correct Answer: Pituitary
Solution : The correct answer is Pituitary.
The pituitary gland does not function as both an exocrine and an endocrine gland. It is only an endocrine gland, which means it secretes hormones straight into the circulation. Exocrine glands produce chemicals into ducts that go to external organs or interior organs. Hormones are secreted directly into the circulation by endocrine glands, where they travel to target cells throughout the body.
