∙ 14y agoThe nerves, sweat glands, oil glands, and hair are found in the dermis layer of the skin. The dermis is located beneath the epidermis and is responsible for providing structure, support, and nourishment to the skin.
The autonomic nervous system controls the sweat glands. Specifically, the sympathetic nervous system triggers the release of sweat in response to stimuli such as elevated body temperature or emotional stress. Sweat glands are innervated by sympathetic nerve fibers that release a neurotransmitter called acetylcholine to stimulate sweat secretion.
There are around 125,000 sweat glands in the feet. Sweat glands in the feet help regulate body temperature and keep the skin moisturized.
Sweat glands produce sweat to help regulate body temperature, while oil glands produce sebum to lubricate and protect the skin and hair. Sweat glands are found all over the body, while oil glands are mainly concentrated in the face and scalp.
The secretion of sweat is controlled by the nervous system. Specialized nerve fibers called sympathetic nerves stimulate the sweat glands to produce sweat in response to factors such as temperature, physical activity, and emotions.
They are sympathetic but an exception - ACh is released as a post-synaptic neurotransmitter rather than Adrenaline/Noradrenaline.Illicitinga parasympathetic response will not stimulate these neurons and therefore sweating is not a parasympathetic side effect.However, as post-synaptic sweat glands contain Muscarinic receptors and not adrenoceptors the administration of a non-selective Muscarinic agonist would result in both a parasympathetic response such as constriction of the pupil or decreased heart rate as well as sweating due to the activation of these sympathetic post-synaptic MAChR in the sweat glands.Atropine would reduce all parasympathetic responses and stop sweating.
The dermis contains nerves, blood vessels, sweat glands, hairs, and oil glands.
All the post-ganglionic parasympathatic reseptors are cholinergic (muscarinic) . and all the post-ganglionic sympaythatic reseptors are adrenergic . Except for sweat glands , Piloerecter muscles , and a few blood vessels they use sympathatic nerves but a cholinergic resepotrs . -Note that all the pre-ganglionic ( sympathatic and para sympathatic ) reseptors are cholinergic ( Nicotinic ). -Note that the sweat glands on the palms of the hand are adrenergic , but the rest of the sweat glands are cholinergic.
Because this response by the immune system occurs in the deeper layers of the skin, the hair follicles, sweat glands, and nerves can be destroyed.
No, human lips do not contain sweat glands. Sweat glands are primarily located on the skin throughout the body excluding the lips. Sweat is produced by these glands to regulate body temperature.

No, they have sweat glands
Only mammals have sweat glands. Dinosaurs were reptiles, so they did not have sweat glands.
Sweat glands are found in the skin.

The skin is composed of three main layers: the epidermis (outermost layer), the dermis (middle layer), and the subcutis (innermost layer). These layers work together to protect the body, regulate temperature, and provide sensation. Additionally, the skin contains hair follicles, sweat glands, and oil glands.
