What else can I help you with?
Where is mucus secreted in the alimentary canal?
Mucus is secreted so that peristalsis can occur and can slide easily down you throat.
What is the protective function of the cilia and goblet cells of the trachea?
Mucus secreted by goblet cells trap the foreign particles. Cilia push the particles out wards. This protects your lungs from damage by the foreign particles.
Mucus is secreted throughout much of the GI tract by?
Mucus is secreted throughout much of the GI tract by goblet cells. These cells are specialized epithelial cells that produce mucus to protect and lubricate the lining of the digestive system, aiding in digestion and preventing damage from digestive enzymes and acids.
Helps protect internal organs that are connected with the outside of the body by secreting a sticky fluid that traps microbes?
That would be mucus, secreted by goblet cells.
What organelles are found in the goblet cell?
Goblet cells contain organelles such as the endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, and secretory vesicles. These organelles work together to produce, package, and secrete mucin, which is a key component of mucus secreted by goblet cells.
What is the goblet cell made of?
Goblet cells are specialized columnar epithelial cells found in the respiratory and gastrointestinal tracts. They are characterized by the presence of mucins, which are large glycoproteins that help in producing mucus. Mucus secreted by goblet cells plays a crucial role in protecting and lubricating the lining of these organs.
Mucous that protects your stomach lining is secreted by a specialized type of?
Mucous that protects the stomach lining is secreted by specialized cells called goblet cells. These cells are found throughout the stomach and are responsible for producing and releasing the mucous layer that helps to protect the stomach from the acidic environment and enzymes.
What cleansing cells in the bronchial lining are damaged by smoking?
Goblet cells line the bronchi. They secrete mucus (a complex polysaccharides that aids in the cleansing process). These goblet cells become damaged upon prolonged exposure to cigarette smoke
Do glands secrete mucus?
You may be thinking of the sublingual gland. But there are many mucus secreting cells embedded in the epithelium of various tissues (such as intestinal tract, female reproductive tract, etc.)
How is air warmed and moistened as it passes through the nasal cavity?
The inhaled air 'swirls' around the conchaemoistens via the mucus secreted by the goblet cells and drainage from the nasolacrimal ducts; cleans by the mucus trapping dust particles and the cilia moving the mucus and trapped dust particles toward the pharynx
