The microscope in cell studies — practice question

A student used the high-power lens of a light microscope to produce some labelled drawings of lung tissue, but two airways, P and Q, were left unnamed. In the drawing of the lining of P, both ciliated cells and goblet cells were present, whereas the drawing of the lining of Q contained ciliated cells but only a very small number of goblet cells. Which airways are P and Q?

  • AP: bronchiole, Q: trachea
  • BP: bronchiole, Q: bronchus
  • CP: bronchus, Q: bronchiole
