Sebaceous and Sweat glands
additional information
1) Apocrine sweat glands -- a type of human sweat gland that are present in areas such as the axillae (armpits), areola, in the perineum (genital areas), around the belly button and in the external auditory canal(as wax-secreting glands). Specialized types of apocrine glands present on the eyelids are called Moll's glands. Apocrine sweat glands are inactive until they are stimulated by hormonal changes in puberty.
2) Holocrine - the sebaceous glands of the skin and the meibomian glands of the eyelid.

What are the Types of sebaceous glands?
Most sebaceous glands are on the skin and release oil. There are two types of modified sebaceous glands as well. Mammary glands produce milk, and ceruminous glands in the ear canal produce cerumen, or ear wax.
What kind of glands are sebaceous and sweat glands?
These two glands are found in the skin and are known as exocrine glands because they have a duct through which the substance travels.If they do not have a duct and secrete a substance directly into the blood they are called endocrine glands.
What happens to the skin as it ages?
What are the two types f sweat glands
What organs have endocrine and exocrine function?
There is more than one organ that has both endocrine and exocrine functions. The pancreas houses two distinctly different tissues. The bulk of its mass is exocrine tissue and associated ducts, which produce an alkaline fluid loaded with digestive enzymes which is delivered to the small intestine to facilitate digestion of foodstuffs. Scattered throughout the exocrine tissue are several hundred thousand clusters of endocrine cells which produce the hormones insulin and glucagon, gastrin, and somatostatin, plus a few other hormones. The liver also has both endocrine and exocrine functions. The liver's exocrine function involves the secretion of bile, which moves through ducts to the gallbladder where it is stored until needed to emulsify fats. In addition, the liver produces the hormone insulin=like growth factor 1 (IGF-1), which affects growth and development in childhood and impacts adult muscle development as well. The liver also produces the endocrine hormone thrombopoeitin, which stimulate the production of platelets. It makes angiotensinogen, a hormone that affects blood pressure. The stomach secretes stomach acid (exocrine) as well as gastrin (an hormone that works within the stomach). The duodenum secretes mucus (exocrine) as well as gastrin, cholecystokinin, and secretin (endocrine). While the testicles and ovaries do have endocrine function, they produce no exocrine secretions.
What are two glands that have ducts?
the two glands that have ducts are the penis and the vagina but they have to meet
What is the difference between a duct gland and an endocrine gland?
this involves the two chief kinds of glands ---endocrine glands and exocrine glands,endocrine glands release secretions into the blood where it doesn't need to pass to a tubelike or ducts,"in my own words internal delivery of wastes''.while exocrine glands discharge secretions into small ducts or tubes.the ducts lead to the outer layer of the skin and eyes or the interior surfaces of such organs as the stomach and small intestine.
What are two functions of the pancreas?
It creates insulin and secretes digestive enzymes.
What are the two types of glands?
The two types of glands in a human body are ductless glands and duct glands. A few of the duct glands are tear ducts, sweat glands, and salivary glands.
How do endocrine glands differ from other glands?
Endocrine glands secrete hormones and exocrine glands secrete enzymes. Endocrine glands secrete hormones directly into the blood stream, while exocrine glands secrete enzymes through ducts. endocrine is ductless gland exocrine retain their duct, exocrine empty through their duct to epithelial such as sweat, oil, glands, liver and pancrease
What are the 3 types of glands found in the skin and what are their function?
The skin of humans has two basic types of glands, sweat glands (sudoriferous) and oil glands (sebacious). The sweat glands come in two varieties, the eccrine glands produce sweat all over our bodies, but the apocrine glands only become active during puberty and give us body odor. These aromatic apocrine glands are concentrated in the armpits and the genital regions.i dont know lol plzzz someone answer this question
What are the two types of sudoriferous gland?
The two types of sudoriferous glands are the eccrine and apocrine glands.
What are the mixed endocrine-exocrine organs?
One of the mixed endocrine-exocrine organs is the pancreas. It has a mixture of the two tissues. The larger, exocrine part has clusters of secretory cells that form sacs known as acini. The smaller endocrine tissue is known as the islets of Langerhans, which go throughout the entire pancreas. The other endocrine organs that are mixed glands are the ovaries and the testes. Mixed glands means that they are endocrine and exocrine in function.
