Accepted Answer

Sensible perspiration is the type of sweat that is produced by eccrine sweat glands located all over the body. These glands are responsible for regulating the body's temperature by producing sweat that evaporates and cools the skin. Sebaceous glands produce oil, apocrine glands produce a different type of sweat in areas such as the armpits and groin, milk-producing glands are found in the breasts and follicular glands produce hair.
