A schematic shows a branching duct ending in clustered lobules composed of rounded alveoli, with a duct cross-section revealing an epithelial-lined lumen. In anatomy and histology, this represents the terminal duct–lobular unit (TDLU), the functional secretory tissue of the mammary gland within the breast. In physiology, alveolar epithelium synthesizes milk that flows through the ductal system toward the nipple. Hierarchically, alveoli form lobules that connect to ducts within breast parenchyma. Type: glandular anatomical tissue. Species: Homo sapiens (human).
