Apocrine glands, which begin to function at puberty under hormonal influence, seem to play a little role in thermoregulation. Where would we find these glands in the human body?

Apocrine glands are considered the "smelly glands". The odor is from bacteria. Also, the smell is influenced by what we eat.
* They are located in the arm pits and groin.
