The correct Answer is:
To determine the correct sequence of the arrangement of parts in the mammary glands, we need to analyze the structure and organization of the mammary glands. Here’s a step-by-step breakdown of the arrangement: ### Step 1: Understand the Components of Mammary Glands The mammary glands consist of several components including: - Mammary alveolus - Mammary ducts - Ampulla - Mammary lobes ### Step 2: Identify the Function of Each Component - **Mammary Alveolus**: These are the milk-producing structures where milk is synthesized. - **Mammary Ducts**: These ducts transport milk from the alveoli to the nipple. - **Ampulla**: This is a storage area for milk before it is released through the ducts. - **Mammary Lobes**: These are the larger sections of the mammary gland that contain clusters of alveoli and ducts. ### Step 3: Determine the Sequence of Milk Flow When milk is produced in the mammary alveoli, it flows through the following sequence: 1. **Mammary Alveolus**: Milk is produced here. 2. **Mammary Ducts**: Milk travels through these ducts. 3. **Ampulla**: Milk is stored here temporarily. 4. **Mammary Lobes**: These encompass the alveoli and ducts, but in terms of flow, they are not the endpoint. ### Step 4: Analyze the Options Provided Now, we will evaluate the options given in the question: 1. **Mammary Alveolus → Mammary Duct → Ampulla → Mammary Lobe** (Incorrect) 2. **Ampulla → Mammary Lobe → Mammary Alveolus → Mammary Duct** (Incorrect) 3. **Mammary Lobe → Mammary Duct → Mammary Alveolus → Ampulla** (Incorrect) 4. **Ampulla → Mammary Duct → Mammary Alveolus → Mammary Lobe** (Correct) ### Conclusion The correct sequence of the arrangement of parts in the mammary glands is: **Ampulla → Mammary Duct → Mammary Alveolus → Mammary Lobe**.
