AI Generated Solution

The correct Answer is:
### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Assertion**: The assertion states that "Exocrine glands are without ducts and secrete hormones passing directly to blood." - **Analysis**: This is incorrect because exocrine glands do not secrete hormones; they secrete substances (like enzymes, sweat, etc.) through ducts to specific sites. 2. **Understanding the Reason**: The reason states that "Endocrine glands are with duct." - **Analysis**: This is also incorrect because endocrine glands do not have ducts. Instead, they secrete hormones directly into the bloodstream. 3. **Conclusion**: Since both the assertion and the reason are incorrect, we can conclude that the answer is that both statements are false. 4. **Final Answer**: The correct answer is option number 4, which states that both the assertion and the reason are false.
