Anterior Pituitary Gland
Accessory glands associated with the cutaneous membrane include sweat glands and sebaceous glands. Sweat glands produce sweat, which helps regulate body temperature, while sebaceous glands secrete sebum to lubricate and waterproof the skin.
The eyelashes are associated with modified sebaceous glands called Meibomian glands. These glands secrete an oily substance which helps to keep the eyelashes lubricated and prevents tears from evaporating too quickly.
The adrenal glands produce insulin. In diabetes, these glands no longer produce sufficient insulin.
The sebaceous glands are associated with hair follicles. The secrete a sebum which protects the lubricates the epidermis and inhibits bacteria.

The sweat glands associated with hair are called apocrine glands. These glands produce a thicker, more odorous sweat that is released through hair follicles. They are primarily located in areas with dense hair follicles, such as the scalp, armpits, and groin.
Sebaceous glands
The external digestive glands associated with the human digestive system are the salivary glands, liver, gallbladder, and pancreas. These glands secrete substances that help in the breakdown of food and absorption of nutrients in the digestive process.
