Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Answer and Explanation: Option C is correct. Apocrine sweat glands have limited distribution and are predominant in axillary and genital areas.
Detailed explanation-2: -Sebaceous glands are holocrine glands, and sweat glands (both eccrine and apocrine ones) are merocrine glands.
Detailed explanation-3: -When your body temperature rises, these glands release fluids that cool your body as they evaporate. Apocrine glands are found in areas where you have hair, such as your armpits and groin. These glands release a milky fluid when you’re stressed. This fluid is odorless until it combines with bacteria on your skin.
