Question

Name the process by which mucin leaves the goblet cells

Answer 1

Answer:

The "Apocrine method" is a process in which the mucin leaves the globet cells.

Explanation:

Globet cells are of columnar globet shaped just like those epithelial cell which is responsible for the secretion of gel forming mucin. For secretion the method used is  the merocrine method and for leaving the secretion apocrine method is used. This happens under the stress condition. The apocrine method happens or leaves the secretion through the plasma membrane which produces extracellular membrane bound vesicles. The apical portion of the secretory cells gets pinched and enters into the lumen.
