The right answer is C.

A gland is an organ capable of synthesizing a substance that will then be secreted. The endocrine glands secrete hormones, which will be released into the bloodstream with a role in communication between cells. This is, for example, the pituitary gland, the thyroid, the adrenal glands. The exocrine glands, such as the salivary or lacrimal glands, but also the mammary, sebaceous or sweat glands, produce substances that will be released into body cavities, or outside these cavities.
