What are Alveoli?

  1. Multiple alveolus

  2. A type of muscle

  3. Connective tissue

  4. Blood vessels

The correct answer is: Multiple alveolus

Alveoli are small, hollow cavities or sacs found in the mammary glands where milk is produced and stored before being released through the lactiferous ducts during breastfeeding. They are the functional units of the breast responsible for milk production. Therefore, the correct answer is A, multiple alveolus. Options B, C, and D are incorrect as alveoli are not a type of muscle, connective tissue, or blood vessels.
