During fetal development, sudoriferous glands develop from the : a. stratum basale b. mesoderm c. mesenchyme d. wharton’s jelly e. endoderm

The correct answer is A) Stratum basale.

Sudoriferous glands are also called as 'Sweat glands'. They are exocrine glands as they secrete their substances through the duct. They are tiny tubular glands with the secretory unit which is present in the dermis or subcutaneous tissue, and a duct which opens on the surface of the skin. Their primary role is regulation of body temperature as by sweating, body heat is lost.

During fetal development, sudoriferous glands develop from the Stratum basale. It is the deepest layer of the epidermis. It is made up of a single layer of cells which are resting upon the basement membrane, a layer present between dermis and epidermis.

Thus, sudoriferous glands are derived from Stratum basale during fetal development.

the food storage products of chrysophytes are oils or the polysaccharide laminarin.   formerly classified as plants, the chrysophytes contain the photosynthetic pigments chlorophyll a and c all but the yellow-green algae also contain the carotenoid pigment fucoxanthin.
