The sweat pore is were the sweat from the sweat gland is released. The main function of sweat is temperature regulation (thermoregulation).
The sweat gland duct transports sweat from the sweat gland to the skin's surface. It helps regulate body temperature by releasing sweat, which evaporates and cools the body.
that would be the thing that makes you sweat, haha.
Exocrine glands are any glands that deposit their secretions through a duct onto a body surface. Because sweat is deposited onto the surface of our skin it would be considered an exocrine gland. Endocrine glands secrete directly into our bloodstream.
duct of rivinus
The gland that has no duct and secretes its product directly into the blood is the endocrine gland. Examples of endocrine glands include the pituitary gland, thyroid gland, and adrenal gland.
I think the student wanted to ask about the difference between an exocrine and endocrine gland but mistakened and wrote both the same. Exocrine gland differ from Endocrine gland because in case of exocrine glands ezymes are secreted by ducts carrying them to their site of actions but in case of endocrine hormones are secreted in body without ducts and are cariied by circulatory fluid of the organism.
The Cowper's gland is not an endocrine gland. It's an exocrine gland with a duct.
pancreas
The secretory portion of the gland is not located in the epidermis. It is actually located deep in the dermis. It is a twisted tubule, and is a fairly compacted tangle. The duct is what goes up to the epidermis layer of the skin.
The pancreas is both a duct gland and an endocrine gland. It has exocrine functions, releasing digestive enzymes into the pancreatic duct, and endocrine functions, producing insulin and glucagon to regulate blood sugar levels.
