An elongated tube.
A tube through which body fluids pass.
Any tube that conveys the secretion of any gland from one point to another.
A tube which carries liquids, especially one which carries secretions.
Tubelike channel for carrying fluids or other materials from one organ or part to another (e.g., the bile duct, which carries bile to the duodenum).
An open channel through which secretions or other substances pass.
In anatomy, a tube or other walled passage in an organ of the body. A duct is typically a narrow tubular passage through which fluid passes, such as those found in the gallbladder of glands.
A tube-like structure or channel, especially one for carrying glandular secretions.
The name applied to a passage leading from a gland into some hollow organ, or on to the surface of the body, by which the secretion of the gland is discharged: for example, the pancreatic duct and the bile duct opening into the duodenum, and the sweat ducts opening on the skin surface.
A narrow tubular vessel or channel, especially one that conveys secretions from a gland.
In the realm of anatomy and physiology, there exists a conduit known as a duct, which serves as a pathway for the transportation of various substances. Through these ducts, substances have the ability to travel to another organ or enter the bloodstream. This remarkable network of tubes enables the efficient movement of fluids, secretions, and other vital substances throughout the body, facilitating essential physiological processes and ensuring proper functioning of organs and systems.
A cylindrical or pipe-like conduit emanating from a gland, designed to facilitate the movement of fluids, for instance, the ducts that enable tear flow.
A conduit, especially one that transports bodily secretions or waste.
