Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Cerumen (earwax) from ceruminous glands helps prevent drying of the eardrum by providing a moist environment. Serous fluid from serous glands, sebum from sebaceous glands, and sweat from apocrine glands are not located in the ear canal and do not contribute to preventing drying of the eardrum.
