Which salivary gland produces a serous secretion containing large amounts of salivary amylase?
The parotid gland produces a serous secretion containing large amounts of salivary amylase, an enzyme that helps break down carbohydrates in the mouth during digestion.
What receptor is responsible for the secretion of salivary amylase?
The muscarinic receptors on the salivary gland cells are responsible for the secretion of salivary amylase. Stimulation of these receptors by the neurotransmitter acetylcholine triggers the release of amylase into the saliva.
What is a salivary gland scan?
A salivary gland scan is a nuclear medicine test that examines the uptake and secretion in the salivary glands of a radioactively labeled marker substance. The pattern of uptake and secretion shows if these glands are functioning normally.
What is liquid produced by salivary glands called?
The secretion form the salivary gland is called saliva.
What three structures pass through the salivary gland?
The duct of the salivary gland, the facial nerve, and the lingual nerve pass through the salivary gland.

Which of the salivary glands produces a secretion that is mainly serous?
Parotid Gland

What is an abnormal result of a salivary gland scan?
Abnormally functioning salivary glands fail to exhibit a normal uptake and secretion pattern. This test does not differentiate between benign and malignant lesions.
What is the smallest salivary gland?
It's the sublingual salivary gland.
What salivary gland is the largest?
The largest salivary gland is parotid
What three structures pass through the salivary gland?
The duct of the salivary gland, the facial nerve, and the lingual nerve pass through the salivary gland.
Where does salivary gland secretion starts?
