Q

Thus type of epithelium is found in respiratory tract where some of the cells have cillia

Seen in trachea, the cillia moves the mucus produced by the goblet cell

A

Glandular epithelium

18
Q

Ductless(no passage) gland that release secretion(hormones) into the surrounding tissues and fluids.

A

Endocrine glands

19
Q

Secretion (breast milk, saliva, and sweat) leaves through a duct(passage) that leads to epithelial surface

A

Exocrine glands
