Detailed explanation-1: -Eccrine Sweat Glands are the most numerous especially on the palms, soles, and forehead, sometimes as many as 3000 per inch2. Eccrine sweat glands produce “true” sweat by exocytosis. Sweat is 99% water with some salt, antibodies, and metabolic wastes.
Detailed explanation-2: -Eccrine sweat glands are exocrine glands distributed over the entire body surface but are particularly abundant on the palms of hands, soles of feet, and on the forehead. These produce sweat that is composed chiefly of water (99%) with various salts.
