Vedclass · Answer

(C) The correct answer is $C$. Functional mammary glands are a characteristic feature of all female mammals. The glandular tissue of each breast is divided into $15-20$ mammary lobes containing clusters of cells called alveoli. The cells of the alveoli secrete milk,which is stored in the cavities (lumens) of the alveoli. The alveoli open into mammary tubules. The tubules of each lobe join to form a mammary duct. Several mammary ducts join to form a wider mammary ampulla,which is connected to the lactiferous duct through which milk is sucked out.
