Question
Chapter 21.4, Problem 11CC
Summary Introduction
To determine: The way through which mucin, amylase, and immunoglobins move from epithelial cells of salivary gland to the lumen of the gland.
Introduction: Exocytosis is a process of transportation of cell materials out of the cell. It is an energy-dependent process and involves secretions produced by secretory cells of the epithelium. Epithelial cells of salivary glands contain secretory cells which produce proteins important for digestion of food.

Which is a correct statement about the Na+/K+ transporter (pump), and its cytology and cellular role?
It is found the basal side of intestinal epithelial cells, pumping Na+ out of the cell into the blood.
It is found on the plasma membrane of neurons, pumping Na+ into axons from the blood.
It is found on the membrane of the lysosome, pumping K+ into the lumen of the lysosome.
It is found on the apical side of intestinal epithelia, pumping K+ into the lumen of the intestine.
A general principle of physiology is that structure is a determinant of—and has coevolved with—function. One example highlighted in this chapter is the large surface area provided by the villous and microvillous structure of the cells lining the small intestine
