Sweat glands

C
Epidermis
D
Hypodermis
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Sweating via the sweat glands is the body’s most important method of regulating body temperature. In fact, when the air temperature is higher than our skin temperature, the evaporation of sweat is the only means for the body to reduce body temperature and prevent overheating.

Detailed explanation-2: -Sweating is under the control of the sympathetic nervous system, which orchestrates the body’s reaction to stressful situations and emergencies. The sympathetic nervous system activates the sweat glands through the chemical messenger acetylcholine.

Detailed explanation-3: -Use antiperspirant. Antiperspirants containing 6% to 20% aluminum chloride (Drysol, Xerac AC, others) can temporarily block sweat pores. Choose shoes and socks made of natural materials. Keep your feet dry. Choose clothing to suit your activity. 16-Sept-2022
