Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Mucous cells within the lining of the nose produce more than a pint of mucus a day. White blood cells are involved in the immune response but do not produce mucus. Immune cells may also be involved in the response to a foreign substance in the nasal passage but they do not produce mucus. Ciliated cells have tiny hair-like structures called cilia that move the mucus towards the throat but these cells do not produce the mucus itself. Therefore, the best choice is D) Mucous.
