Answer #1
  • Sebaceous glands secrete sebum (oily, waxy substance) which are released as whole cells; Sebaceous glands are thus classified as holocrine glands.
  • Sebaceous glands are alveolar because secretory part is in the form of alveolus.
  • Sebaceous glands are simple glands. because the duct is not branched.
