Given below are two statements.

Statement I : Salivary gland pours its secretion into the oral cavity through ducts.

Statement II : Sweat gland is a ductless, unicellular gland which secretes sweat directly onto the external surface of the skin.

In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below.

Statement I is correct but statement II is incorrect.

Statement I is true. Salivary glands, such as the parotid, submandibular, and sublingual glands, produce saliva, which is then transported through ducts into the oral cavity. Saliva helps moisten food, initiate digestion, and maintain oral health by cleansing the mouth and teeth.

Statement II is false. Sweat glands, also known as sudoriferous glands, are multicellular glands. Exocrine sweat glands, the most numerous type, are ducted glands that secrete sweat directly onto the surface of the skin. Apocrine sweat glands, another type, also have ducts, although their secretions are released into hair follicles rather than directly onto the skin surface. Additionally, sweat glands are not unicellular; they are composed of multiple cells.
