Question

Select the INCORRECT statement regarding the prostate gland.

• A. It is the largest accessory gland of male reproductive system.
• B. It is multilobed and endocrine in function.
• C. Its secretion directly enters the urethra.
• D. The ejaculatory duct passes through the gland to open into urethra.

Hint:

Prostate is an exocrine gland, so check which statement calls it endocrine.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Step 1: Understanding the Concept
The prostate is the largest accessory gland of the male reproductive system, and it is multilobed.
Its secretion goes directly into the urethra, and the ejaculatory ducts pass through it.

Step 2: Key Point
It is an exocrine gland, not an endocrine gland, because its secretion goes through ducts.

Step 3: Compare the options
So the incorrect statement is that it is endocrine in function.

Final Answer:
The statement calling the prostate endocrine is incorrect. \[ \boxed{\text{(B) }\text{It is multilobed and endocrine in function.}} \]
