What are the three types of glands Merocrine Glands classified by the method of Apocrine Glands secretion? Holocrine Glands What glands produce a secretion by Merocrine Glands the process called exocytosis? What are the functions of Merocrine They secrete sweat, which functions for glands? Thermoregulation Inhibiting bacteria on the skin Excretion of water, electrolytes, drugs They do not function as a lubricant for the skin. What is exocytosis? Exocytosis is when a secretion vesicle moves to the plasma membrane, where it fuses and the material is released outside the cell. What gland accumulates material in Apocrine Glands the apical section, the top if the cell breaks off, and the material is released? What are two examples of an Mammary glands and glands associated with apocrine gland? pubic and axillary hairs. What gland secretes a protein? Apocrine glands What are the two types of sweat Merocrine (Eccrine) and apocrine glands? Which gland will break off entirely Holocrine Glands with all the contents inside? What Example: sebaceous glands gland would be an example? Which glands are found in the axilla Apocrine and pubic regions? Which two types of glands are found Sebaceous and Merocrine (Eccrine) all over the body? Name the two types of glands Unicellular Glands and Multicellular Glands classified by their structure (What they look like) Where is a goblet cell found? In the Respiratory Tract ; trachea What are the two types of Multicellular Glands: alveolar or tubular; simple multicellular glands? (no branches) or compound (has branches) Simple alveolar Simple tubular (sweat glands) Compound alveolar (mammary) Compound tubular ALVEOLAR TUBULAR Picture of the different types of Multicellular Glands
