Question 7
To define "dys/hidr/osis", we analyze the word parts: "dys-" means abnormal/faulty, "hidr-" relates to sweat, and "-osis" means condition. So it's a condition of faulty sweating. "Being thirsty" is related to thirst (not sweat), "bad oil" would relate to sebum (not sweat), and "state of water" is not related to the word parts here.
Sudoriferous glands (sweat glands) arise from the dermis and excrete sweat. Sebaceous glands secrete sebum (oil), holocrine glands (like sebaceous) release whole cells, and merocrine glands (a type of sweat gland but the term "sudoriferous" is more specific for sweat - producing glands from dermis).
