Current Question (ID: 14154)

Question:
If for some reason our goblet cells are non-functional, this will adversely affect:
Options:
  • 1. production of somatostatin
  • 2. secretion of sebum from the sebaceous glands
  • 3. maturation of sperms
  • 4. smooth movement of food down the intestine
Solution:
If for some reason our goblet cells are non-functional, this will adversely affect the smooth movement of food down the intestine. Goblet cells secrete mucus which lubricates and protects the epithelial lining of the gastrointestinal tract. This mucus layer is important for the smooth movement of food down the intestine, and without it, the food may not move properly and may cause irritation and inflammation of the intestinal lining. Somatostatin is secreted by D-cells in the stomach and inhibits the secretion of gastrin, insulin, and glucagon, among other hormones. Sebum is an oily substance secreted by the sebaceous glands and is involved in lubricating the skin and hair. Goblet cells do not play a role in the maturation of sperms.
