striated ducts cuboid/columnar w/ striations
intralobular ducts striated/intercalated w/in parynchema
interlobular duct striated/excretory w/in septae w/goblet cells w/in walls
main duct nonkeritinized stratified sqamous
serous gland secretory granules apical cytoplasm, basal oval/round
nuclei

submucosa
muscularis externa
adventitia/serosa

Stomach:
cardiac region =length gastric gland: gastric pit; surface lining, stem, DNES,
parietal
fundus- Cardiac region + chief cells smaller pit:gland ratio
pyloric region- same as cardiac larger pit:gland ratio
gastric pits
gastric glands
rugae
surface lining cells
parietal cells base gland- eosinophilic basal nucleus apical granules
chief cells base gland-basophilic basal nucleus apical granules
stem cells- neck
enteroendocrine cells gland apical nucleus/basal secretory granules
pyloric sphincter
