Answer: goblet cells
Step-by-step explanation:
The goblet cells are typically found scattered inside the epithelial lining of the organs for example the respiratory and intestinal tracts. They can be seen inside the bronchi, trachea, small and large intestine, also in the conjunctiva of the eyelid.
The goblet cells are responsible for the secretion of the mucus in order to protect the mucous membrane. This is accomplished when the goblet cells secrete the mucins, the mucins are the large glycoproteins that are formed by the carbohydrates.
