Mucin secreting Goblet cells are present in all of the following structures, EXCEPT:

Description: The classic example of a unicellular, exocrine gland is the goblet cell, found scattered among epithelial cells lining the trachea, small intestine, and colon. The cell has a narrow base and an expanded apex filled with secretory granules. These cells secrete mucin. Goblet cells are not found in the normal stomach, so the presence of cells with goblet cell morphology represents a clear metaplastic process with intestinal phenotype cells.
