Question

Animal pancreatic cells are specialized to secrete large amounts of specific kinds of proteins--digestive enzymes--into the small intestine. which model represents this type of cell? (note: the models are not drawn to scale.)

Answer 1

Answer:

Acinous secretory pancreatic cells.

Explanation:

Secretory pancreatic cells are organized in sac-shape structures called acini. These structures are conformed of acinous cells and center-acinous cells that secrete digestive enzymes into the intestine

Acinous cells are secretory pyramidal-shaped cells with a rouned and basal nucleus. Their cytoplasm is basophil and shows a high endoplasmic reticulum activity, as it is in charge of synthesizing the secretory enzymes.

Center-acinous cells collect secretions from acinous cells and conform ducts to where they vert all these secretions destined to be released into the intestine.
