Answer:

A sweat gland

Step-by-step explanation:

While sweat glands can be influenced by the endocrine system, such as stress, sweat glands ultimately are independent of the system and are not an endocrine gland because their purpose is to secret sebaceous oils and sweat to cool down and are part of the integumentary system (the skin)
