Answer:

A. Ceruminous

B. Sebaceous

C. Ceruminous

D. Ceruminous

E. Sebaceous

F. Sebaceous

Explanation:

Ceruminous glands are modified sweat glands located subcutaneously in the cartilaginous two-thirds of the external auditory canal. Ceruminous glands produce together with sebaceous glands the cerumen (i.e. earwax), which protects the ear canal against physical damage and/or microbial infections. On the other hand, sebaceous glands are glands in the skin that secrete sebum, an oily, waxy substance that lubricates the hair and skin of mammals. These glands (sebaceous) are affected by sex hormones like testosterone that enlarges the glands due to the increased cell proliferation rate and estradiol, which reduces the size of the glands due to the accelerated cell breakdown. Sebaceous glands are holocrine glands in which secretions are produced in the cytoplasm of the cells and then they are released by the rupture of the plasma membrane, while ceruminous glands are apocrine glands where the accumulated secretion is pinched off with a portion of the cell.
