What glands regulate body temperature and help to eliminate waste products?

  1. A diffuser

  2. Sweat glands

  3. Arrector pili muscle

  4. Ring finger

The correct answer is: Sweat glands

Sweat glands are responsible for regulating body temperature and eliminating waste products by secreting sweat onto the skin. A diffuser is a device used to disperse essential oils into the air and therefore is not related to regulating body temperature or eliminating waste products. The arrector pili muscle is responsible for causing hair to stand up when activated and has no role in regulating body temperature or eliminating waste products. The ring finger is a specific finger on the hand and is not a gland responsible for any bodily functions.
