GENERAL HISTOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -The eccrine sweat gland, which is controlled by the sympathetic nervous system, regulates body temperature. When internal temperature rises, the eccrine glands secrete water to the skin surface, where heat is removed by evaporation.

Detailed explanation-2: -Eccrine sweat glands occur over most of the body and open directly onto the skin’s surface. Apocrine glands open into the hair follicle, leading to the surface of the skin. Apocrine glands develop in areas with many hair follicles, such as on the scalp, armpits and groin.

Detailed explanation-3: -Sweat glands responds to excess heat in the body causes perspiration. It is a salty liquid that flows to the surface. As it evaporates from the skin it cools the surface. Perspiration consists of dissolved waste material from the breakdown of chemicals during cellular processes.

Detailed explanation-4: -Skin Waste Removal Perspiration, or sweat, is a fluid consisting primarily of water, as well as various dissolved solid wastes, that is excreted by the sweat glands. The sweat glands remove a bit of excess water and salts, and also serve the function of cooling the body during thermoregulation.

Detailed explanation-5: -Exocrine glands release (secrete) substances through openings (ducts) onto your body surfaces. Exocrine glands secrete sweat, tears, saliva, milk and digestive juices. A gland is a unit of cells that work together to create and secrete these substances.
