Card 6 / 13:
Describe the transit of breast milk from lactocytes to nipple pores.
Milk is secreted by lactocytes into alveoli. Suckling stimulates the contraction of myoepithelial cells that squeeze milk into lactiferous ducts. It then collects in lactiferous sinuses and is secreted through the nipple pores.
