  1. What are different types of simple epithelium cells responsible for?
    • SAD
    • Secretion = Cuboidal
    • Absorption = Columnar
    • Diffusion = Squamous
  2. What type of histology do goblet cells have?
    Unicellular Exocrine, more specifically apocrine = products are secreted by membrane-bound vesicles and pinched off
  3. What are examples of exocrine cells in the head and face?
    • Goblet cells = unicellular apocrine
    • Main lacrimal gland = merocrine
    • Salivary glands
    • Meibomian glands = holocrine
    • Glands of moll = multicellular apocrine
  4. What type of exocrine secretory histology do meibomian glands have?
    Holocrine = secreted by complete cells, and placed into cytoplasm of other cells
  5. What exocrine glands in the adnexa are apocrine glands?
    • Goblet cells
    • Glands of moll
