The sublingual gland is composed of both mucous and serous acini. The mucous acini are lined with simple columnar epithelium, while the serous acini are lined with simple cuboidal epithelium.
* Simple Cuboidal Epithelium. As their name implies, cuboidal cells are roughly square or cuboidal in shape. Each cell has a spherical nucleus in the centre. Cuboidal epithelium is found in glands and in the lining of the kidney tubules as well as in the ducts of the glands. They also constitute the germinal epitheliumwhich produces the egg cells in the female ovary and the sperm cells in the male testes.
Simple cuboidal epithelia are found in areas of the body where secretion and absorption processes occur, such as in the kidney tubules, thyroid gland, and small ducts of various glands. They are characterized by a single layer of cube-shaped cells with a centrally located nucleus, which facilitates their specialized functions of secretion and absorption.
Yes! a thyroid gland IS an endocrine gland

I think its simple cuboidal

"its in the protista family"not true. glands are composed of glandular epithelial tissue and lined with either simple or stratified cuboidal epithelium. glands lined with stratified cuboidal epithelium include: mammary, sweat, and salivary glands and the pancreas.

Simple cuboidal epithelial tissue can be found lining the surface of small ducts in various glands, such as the salivary glands, thyroid gland, and pancreas. It is also present in kidney tubules where it plays a role in absorption and secretion.
Yes! a thyroid gland IS an endocrine gland
thyroid gland
An example of a simple branched acinar gland is the sebaceous gland, which produces oil or sebum to lubricate and protect the skin and hair follicles.
the thyroid
The Thyroid Gland secretes Calcitonin.
Thyroxine, or 3,5,3',5'-tetraiodothyronine - T4, a form of thyroid hormones is the major hormone secreted by the follicular cells of the thyroid gland.
