The pancreas produces a thick secretion known as pancreatic juice, which contains digestive enzymes and bicarbonate. Additionally, the salivary glands, specifically the submandibular and sublingual glands, can also produce a thicker saliva that aids in digestion. These secretions play crucial roles in digestion and maintaining the pH balance in the digestive tract.
Gland
The sebaceous gland produces an oily secretion called sebum, which can accumulate in the pores and mix with dead skin cells to form blackheads.
The parotid gland produces a serous secretion containing large amounts of salivary amylase, an enzyme that helps break down carbohydrates in the mouth during digestion.
The sweat gland that produces a secretion containing proteins and fats, in addition to water and salt, is the apocrine gland. These glands are primarily located in areas such as the armpits and groin and become active during puberty. The secretion from apocrine glands is thicker and can contribute to body odor when broken down by bacteria on the skin.
