If for some reason our goblet cells are non functional, this will adversely affect:
-
- production of somatostatin
- secretion of sebum from the sebaceous glands
- maturation of sperms
- smooth movement of food down the intestine
Correct Option: D
Goblet cells, found in the intestinal mucosal epithelium, secrete mucus. The mucus lubricates the food for an easy passage. So, if for some reason, goblet cells become non-functional, it will adversely affect the smooth movement of food down the intestine.
