Answer:

F. Both regulation and secretion

Explanation:

Through sweat glands and superficial blood vessels, the skin is able to cool the body and regulate its internal temperature.

The eccrine sweat gland, which is controlled by the sympathetic nervous system, regulates body temperature. When internal temperature rises, the eccrine glands secrete water to the skin surface, where heat is removed by evaporation.
