Q

Define MEROCRINE & APOCRINE GLANDS

A

Merocrine glands release their secretions directly onto the surface of the skin through exocytosis without losing any cellular material. These include eccrine sweat glands found throughout most of the body, responsible for regulating body temperature.

Apocrine glands, on the other hand, release their secretions by pinching off a portion of the cell, which can include cellular debris. These glands are primarily located in areas like the armpits and groin, becoming active during puberty and are associated with scent production.
