Answer:

Endocrine Gland

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Endocrine gland is also known as ductless gland because it secrets hormones directly into the blood stream rather than passing through a duct or vein.
  • Hormones associated with growth, development, metabolism and reproduction are produced by endocrine glands.
  • Endocrine glands have a feedback system in the body to maintain equilibrium in human body.
  • Endocrine gland controls the functions of other glands so it is also called as Master Gland.
