The correct answer is "glands".
Glands are groups of cells which are formed from epithelial tissue and produce substances, such as hormones. They can be divided into two categories, exocrine or endocrine. Endocrine glands secrete these substances into the bloodstream, while exocrine glands release the substances into some of the body's cavities or the outer surface.
