Which of the following is not a function of the exocrine sweat gland? It interferes with adhesion of microorganisms. It uses dermicidin as antibiotic protection. It conditions the surrounding skin with its lipid secretion. It cools the surface of the skin. It excretes electrolytes.

The correct answer is 3rd statement.

Explanation:

A kind of sweat gland that discharges water from the surface of the body at the time of high internal temperatures are known as exocrine sweat glands. This water gets evaporates and results in the cooling of the skin surface. When the temperature of the body enhances, the sweat glands along with water also discharges electrolytes from the surface of the body.  

The sweat glands also exhibit antibacterial properties, as they discharge dermcidin that interferes with the sticking of the microbes with the skin surface. The exocrine sweat glands do not secrete lipids, thus, they lack the tendency to condition the skin surrounding it. Hence, the given statement 3 is incorrect.
