Two types of tissue repair
Regeneration
Fibrosis
Steps in tissue repair
Blood clots
Clot replaced with granulation tissue
If mitotic, tissue regenerates
If too damaged, only replaced with fibrous connective tissue (scar tissue)

Sudoriferous glands
Eccrine sweat glands - thermoregukarion
Appocrine sweat glands- scent glands under arms & genital regions
Subaceous glands
Oil glands
Everywhere except palms & soles
