Sebaceous glands. - oil producing-holocrine-associated with hair follicles-sebum secreting secrete products via apoptosis-secrete products mostly onto hair follicles-lanolin-usually opens up into a hair follicle-coats the scalp hair with oil-blockage and infection can cause pimples-form of sudoriferous gland.- modified mammary glands. sweat secreting-eccrine-merocrine-secrete products via exocytosis-apocrine-mammary glands-secrete directly onto the skin surface-secretions are 99% water and slightly acidic pH-simple tubular structures-responsible for diaphoresis-secretion of pheromones.
