Goblet cells are unicellular exocrine glands. These cells secrete mucous which traps bacteria.Oligodendrocytes are found in CNS. Schwann cells are found in PNS.Swallowing is a voluntary action which is possible due to skeletal muscles.Eosinophils play an important role in allergic reactions (not involved in phagocytosis). Macrophages and neutrophils perform phagocytosis.Talk to our academic expert!
