15
Q

Glandular epithelium

A

Product is always a secretion

Made from water and protein

16
Q

Exocrine

A

All cells start out exocrine
Multicellular exocrine have ducts
Send secretion outside the body or extension of the enviroment

17
Q

Simple duct

A

Duct does not branch

e.g. Simple tubular; simple branched tubular (only comes off of main branch)

18
Q

Compound duct structure

A

Many duct branches

e.g. Compound alveolar, tubular

19
Q

Tubular structure

A

Cells form tubes

20
Q

Alveolar structure

A

Flask like structure

21
Q

Merocrine gland

A

Secrete by exocytosis e.g. Sweat gland

22
Q

Holocrine gland

A

Cells accumulate until they rupture and are replaced by other cells
