Solution

The correct option is B Dermis
Dermis is the middle layer of skin. It contains blood and lymph vessels, hair follicles, and sebaceous and sweat glands. Sweat glands produce sweat that regulate body temperature. Sebaceous glands produce sebum which is an oily substance that prevents the drying of skin. Thus the correct answer is option B.
