Endocrine glands secrete hormones directly into the bloodstream while exocrine glands release secretions through ducts into cavities or body surfaces. Some endocrine glands have other functions beyond hormone production and secretion. These organs are called mixed glands. For example: In addition to hormone production, the pancreas secretes digestive enzymes into the small intestines. Consider the other endocrine glands and list glands that would be considered mixed based on the above criteria.
