What is the tube called in which breast milk travels within the breast?

  1. A. Milk channel

  2. B. Lactiferous duct

  3. C. Vein

  4. D. Artery

The correct answer is: B. Lactiferous duct

The correct answer is "Lactiferous duct." This is the tube in which breast milk travels within the breast. The lactiferous ducts are responsible for carrying the milk from the milk-producing alveoli to the nipple, where the baby can nurse and receive the milk. Veins and arteries do play a role in the blood supply to the breast tissue but are not the tubes through which the breast milk flows.
