Is the salt gland in the albatross the same as their sweat glands?
Only mammals have sweat glands, so the albatross doesn't have them. Its salt gland helps it to get rid of the heavy concentrations of salt it ingests with its food and by drinking ocean water. This is a much greater concentration of salt than what mammals handle via sweating, and of course, sweating's primary function is not to rid the body of salt, but rather to cool it, to produce scent, to protect the skin and hair, etc. Mammary glands are even a modified type of sweat gland.
Do sweat glands produce sweat even in cool temperature?
yes. it is i do sometimes. if you do, then most likely you are worring about something. its called anxiety.
Why do I sweat when I drink?

What more adaptations for pot belly pigs?
Pot belly pigs are the only mammals that do not have sweat glands. They use mud and water to cool themselves off.
What sweat glands produce when the weather is hot?
When the weather is hot, eccrine sweat glands produce sweat. Eccrine glands secrete a watery fluid that helps regulate body temperature by evaporating from the skin's surface, cooling it down.
Do apocrine glands contribute to thermoregulation?
Apocrine glands do not primarily contribute to thermoregulation; their main function is to produce a thicker, milky secretion that is associated with scent and emotional responses. Thermoregulation is mainly managed by eccrine glands, which secrete a watery fluid to cool the body through evaporation. While apocrine glands can produce sweat in response to stress or hormonal changes, they are not involved in the body's cooling process like eccrine glands are.
What do sweat glands produce?
There are two types of sweat glands on the skin: apocrine â?? found mainly in the armpit area â?? and eccrine glands, which are found all over the skin surface. The mechanism of sweating, is controlled by the bodyâ??s autonomic nervous system
How are sebaceous glands and sweat glands similar?
sweat glands secrete sweat (H20, ammonia, urea, salt) onto skin surface. Function: cooling+ evaporation and removal of wastes Sebaceous gland (oil glands) secrete oil onto hair and skin. Function: prevents drying and protects against bacteria.
What do sweat glands help regulate?
One of the adaptations that mammals, including humans, have to keep cool is sweating. Sweat glands secrete onto out skin a mixture of water, salt and ions.What sweat does is it evaporates, using the thermal energy carried in our blood. It is a clever mechanism for maintaining a constant internal temperature.
How does the skin helps in regulation?
The easiest example I can give is sweating. When its hot outside, your sweat glands produce water as a way to cool your body down.
Why is your dog panting and she has a runny eye with pus?
Dogs have their sweat glands on their tongue so they pant to cool off their bodies. The pus in the eye is not normal and she should see a vet for that.
