Q

secretory alveoli

A

terminal branches of mammory gland

17
Q

what is one unique feature of the breast

A

the secretory alveoli do not elaborate until pregnancy occurs

18
Q

nulligravida

A

never pregnant

19
Q

what makes the secondary and tertiary branches of the breast develop

A

-the influence of sex hormones during female puberty
- the breasts of males and children only contain the primary branches of ductal tissue

22
Q

what is this pointing to

A

secretory alveoli

23
Q

what is the epithelium of secretory alveoli

A

simple columar

24
Q

what is one way to diferentiate intralobular duct cells from secretory acini

A

ntralobular duct cells don’t contain Intracellular product so they are more coboidal

25
top secretory alveoli bottom intralobular duct
26
what type of product is this
extracellular product
27
what type of product is this?
intracellular product pinching off of secretory alveoli
28
what is this showing
ductal carcinoma in situ
29
what is going on in these two picture
invasive ductal carinoma
