MAMMARY GLAND | Anatomy

摘要: The mammary gland of the dairy cow is composed millions milk-producing alveoli, which convert blood components into protein, fat, and lactose. attached to body by median lateral suspensory ligaments. Milk exits each via a teat equipped with canal. Nutrients are brought tissue artery, passes through inguinal canal dorsal surface udder, ending in capillaries that supply milk precursors alveoli. After interchange between tissue, reaches small veins, run dorsally unite form veins at base udder. Interstitial fluids originating from nourish cells recirculate lymphatic system, carries waste products away major nerves sensory carry impulses four quarters teats brain. nervous system has no direct involvement production or removal but it essential milking process triggering mechanisms hormone release brain tissue.
