You can carry on with the questions or start a new thread beginning with A&P but here goes my guess:

Sebaceous Gland - produces sebum ( secreted through a hair folicle) lubricates and softens the skin and hair.
Sweat glands - regulate body temperature through evaperation of sweat through the skin.

Am I right?

Sebaceous Glands & Sudoriferious Glands

Sweat Glands are: Eccrine and Apocrine
