Explanation:

• Goblet cells and mucin cells secrete mucus onto epithelial surfaces (exocrine secretion) and are single - celled. Endocrine glands secrete hormones into the bloodstream.
• Jaundice (yellowing of the skin) is often associated with liver disorders as the liver processes bilirubin. A hematoma is a localized collection of blood. Low oxygenation of hemoglobin causes cyanosis (bluish color). Anemia or low blood pressure does not typically cause yellowing.

Answer:

• Goblet cells and mucin cells: B. Unicellular exocrine glands
• Patient with yellowing: C. has a liver disorder
