On the basis of mode of secretion, glands can be:
(1) Holocrine glands : In holocrine glands (e.g. sebaceous gland), the product of secretion is shed with the whole cell leading to its destruction
(ii) Merocrine glands : When the secretory granules leave the cell by exocytosis simple diffusion) with no loss of other cellular material, the glands are called merocrine glands (eg. the pancreas, salivary glands, intestinal glands and sweat glands)
(iii) Apocrine glands : In apocrine glands (eg. mammary gland and axillary sweat glands), only the apical portion of the cytoplasm is discharged along with the secretory product
