A very small duct refers to a narrow tube or passage that carries fluids, gases, or air within a system. In biological contexts, it may describe tiny structures like bile ducts or glandular ducts that transport secretions. In engineering, it can refer to miniature ducts used in HVAC systems or microfluidics. These small ducts are crucial for efficient transport and function in various applications.

Is the collecting duct in the nephron a tube?
Yes, a very small one.
Duct transporting bile from gallbladder to common bile duct?
The duct that transports bile from the gallbladder to the common bile duct is called the cystic duct. It is a small tube that connects the gallbladder to the common bile duct, allowing bile produced by the liver and stored in the gallbladder to flow into the small intestine for digestion.
What is gallbladder attached to?
It is attached to liver and small intestine.
How is gallbladder connected to small intestine?
the bile duct
What duct is formed by the merger of the cystic duct and the common hepatic duct?
The merger of the cystic duct and the common hepatic duct forms the common bile duct. This duct carries bile from the liver and gallbladder to the small intestine for digestion.
What is the duct that leaves the gallbladder?
The duct that leaves the gallbladder is called the cystic duct. It joins with the common hepatic duct to form the common bile duct, which carries bile from the gallbladder to the small intestine to aid in digestion.
What is the difference between sweat duct and sweat gland?
sweat glands :are small tubular structures of the skin that produce sweat. sweat duct :a small duct that conveys sweat from a sudoriferous gland to the surface of the skin.
How is liver connected to lumen of gut?
The liver has a duct, called the common bile duct, that delivers bile through an opening into the small intestine, the duodenum, called the major duodenal papilla. This duct is joined by the pancreatic duct as they both transport their products into the small intestine.
What is attached to the hepatic duct?
Hepatic duct is attached with liver. The union of hepatic duct and cystic duct forms common bile duct.
What organ transports bile from the gallbladder?
The bile duct transports bile from the gallbladder to the small intestine.
Where does the gallbladder pump bile through the bile duct into?
The bile duct opens into the duodenum (the first part of the small intestines).
Does the bile duct join the small intestine at the duodenum?
A few inches into the duodenum is the hepato-pancreatic ampulla, which is the site where the pancreatic duct and the common bile duct of the liver enter.
