Sebaceous gland Sebaceous gland Sebaceous glands are microscopic exocrine glands in the skin that secrete an oily or waxy matter, called sebum, to lubricate and waterproof the skin and hair of mammals. In humans, they occur in the greatest number on the face and scalp, but also on all parts of the skin except the palms of the hands and soles of the feet. The type of secretion of the sebaceous glands is referred to as holocrine. In the eyelids, meibomian glands, also called tarsal glands, are a type of sebaceous gland that secrete a special type of sebum into tears. Fordyce
Oily Hare Oily Hare Oily Hare is a Warner Bros. "Merrie Melodies" short, released in 1952, directed by Robert McKimson, written by Tedd Pierce, and starring Bugs Bunny. The title is a pun on oily hair, as with the earlier cartoon "Slick Hare", along with the plot-line actually having to do with oil. The plot is similar to the short "The Fair-Haired Hare", which was released one year earlier and features Orville (Yosemite Sam's brother) as Bugs' antagonist. "Oily Hare" also recycles the same ending where Bugs' home is filled with explosives and blown up. Along Highway $101.00, approximately 531 miles from
