Solution

The correct option is E Sweat gland
Sweat glands present in skin help dissipate the heat during summers by evaporation of water on the skin surface, thereby cooling the skin surface. Skin does not contain any thermoregulatory centres but only exhibit sweating as a mechanism of temperature regulation. Hence, the correct answer is E.
