Hiya user! Your answer will be as follows:
The endocrine system is a chemical messenger system comprising feedback loops of the hormones released by internal glands of an organism directly into the circulatory system, regulating distant target organs
Endocrine glands release hormones directly into the blood stream. So, they are termed as ductless glands. For example, pituitary, thyroid, pancreas, etc.
Hope it helps!!
