Which statement about endocrine glands is false?

  1. Release their secretions into bloodstream

  2. Essential for growth and development

  3. Ductless

  4. None of the above

The correct answer is: None of the above

The statement "None of the above" indicates that all the prior statements about endocrine glands are true. However, this would imply that there is no false statement among the choices provided. Endocrine glands indeed release their secretions, which are hormones, directly into the bloodstream rather than through ducts, making them ductless. They play a crucial role in regulating various bodily functions, including metabolism, growth, and development. Therefore, each of the statements A, B, and C is accurate regarding endocrine glands, confirming that none of those statements is false. The choosing of "D" reflects an understanding that all the previous assertions correctly describe characteristics of endocrine glands.
