Answered by admin @


Answer:

The answer is D.

Explanation:

Apocrine sweat glands secretions contain fat and protein more so than eccrine gland secretions. Apocrine glands are located in the groin and in the armpits because they are normally associated with the hair follicles present in these areas and are responsible for the foul odour of the sweat in these parts of the body. Apocrine sweat glands also become fully active during puberty as a result of the action of the hormones that are released as we become adults.
