What are the unicellular exocrine glands called that are found in the intestinal mucosae?
The unicellular exocrine glands found in the intestinal mucosa are called goblet cells. They secrete mucus to protect and lubricate the lining of the intestines.
How does mucosa look?
Mucosa typically appears pink and moist. It is made up of epithelial cells and underlying connective tissue, and can be found lining various organs and body cavities such as the mouth, stomach, and intestines. It serves as a protective barrier against pathogens and helps with nutrient absorption.
Where are the stem cells that make new cells to protect the intestines in an adult?
In the adult intestines, the stem cells that generate new cells to protect the tissues are located in the intestinal crypts. These stem cells are found at the base of the crypts and continuously divide to produce new cells that migrate upwards to replace the older cells that line the intestinal surface.
What is the function of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue?
Mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) functions as a part of the immune system, protecting mucosal surfaces in the body from infections. It helps to produce antibodies and immune cells that can respond to pathogens that enter the body through mucosal tissues such as the respiratory or digestive tracts.
What cellular structures are found in the epidermal cells of humans but not in epidermal cell of leaves?
Melanocytes, which produce melanin for skin pigmentation, are found in human epidermal cells but not in leaf epidermal cells. Additionally, human epidermal cells contain structures like Langerhans cells for immune response, which are not present in leaf epidermal cells.
The structures that produce new cells for the mucosa of the small intestine are the?
Intestinal Crypts
What do the structures at the top of the stalk produce?
Cells

What cells of the mucosa secrete hormones into blood?
Enteroendocrine cells
In the small intestines fatty acids cholesterol and glycerides combine in epithelial cells to form complex structures are called?
chylomicrons
Are there neurotransmitters in our intestines and organs?
Yes, neurotransmitters are found wherever nerves are found.
Which layer of the digestive tract contains blood and lymph vessels and nerve cells?
The submucosa layer of the digestive tract contains blood vessels, lymph vessels, and nerve cells. These structures play important roles in providing nutrients, removing waste, and coordinating digestive functions within the gastrointestinal tract.
Where are the stem cells that make new cells to protect the intestines in an adult?
In the adult intestines, the stem cells that generate new cells to protect the tissues are located in the intestinal crypts. These stem cells are found at the base of the crypts and continuously divide to produce new cells that migrate upwards to replace the older cells that line the intestinal surface.
Where are stem cells that make new cells to protect the intestines in adults?
in the bones
What is lined with mucous-secreting cells called the mucosa.?
The Stomach
What has the author E N Ballantyne written?
E. N. Ballantyne has written: 'Differentiation of plasma cells from mast cells in the intestinal mucosa of the white rat' -- subject(s): Anatomy, Intestinal Mucosa, Mast cells, Plasma cells, Rats
