It discharges through the submandibular duct. The secretory units are predominantly serous although a few mucous alveoli, some with serous demilunes, occur. (Stedman, 25th ed)
Definition (CSP) one of the three chief, paired salivary glands, lying partly above and partly below the posterior half of the base of the mandible.
