Objective 4 - Endocrine and Exocrine glands

¨Differentiating between endocrine and exocrine glands is pretty easy.  Endocrine glands release their products into the blood stream or interstitial fluid, while exocrine glands release their product to the surface of an organ or the body itself.  The prefix of these words prevents their from being any confusion between the two.
¨ENDO = INTO
¨EXO = OUT OF
