Here, the cells may be columnar, cuboidal or pyramidal in shape. Nucleus is large and situated towards the base. Secretory granules are present in the cytoplasm.
The glands may be unicellular (globlet cells of intestine) or multicellular (salivary gland) depending on the number of cells. Depending on mode of secretion, multicellular glands can be classified as duct bearing glands (exocrine glands) and ductless glands (endocrine glands).
