Solution

The correct option is A

Sweat gland


Skin contains many glands over their layers, such as sweat glands, oil glands, etc.
The sweat glands produce sweat which goes up through the pores to the surface of your skin.
It cools down the body and regulates the body temperature.
When sweat evaporates from our skin, it removes heat from the body cooling it.
