#merocrine secretion

1 public question tagged with this topic.

Which gland type releases secretion by exocytosis without cell damage?

Correct option is C, Merocrine. In Tissue-I, the accurate description is Merocrine, and that is what you should commit to memory. Keep the definition tight and the role clear — Merocrine is the option that correctly names the structure, process, or principle asked for in Tissue-I. Then Merocrine is the answer you can defend. Check yourself by covering the options and writing the answer first, then matching the letter — that builds confidence. If the wording feels dense, translate it into everyday language first, then map that plain sentence back onto Merocrine. Remember that physiology questions reward precise language: name the process, the location, and the outcome, then match that to the option text.
