          @Vincent I just thought it was playing off the clue in 3 down. I don't see a direct connection to the solution.

          Tårekanal

          Image
          Tåreapparatet ( a ) Tårekjertel ( b ) Øvre tårepunkt ( c ) Øvre tårekanalikkel ( d ) Tåresekk ( e ) Nedre tårepunkt ( f ) Nedre tårekanalikkel ( g ) Tårekanal Tårekanalen eller nase-tårekanalen (av latin ductus nasolacrimalis ) er ein ductus som frakter overflødige tårer frå tåresekken til nasehola. Opninga inn mot nedre nasegang er delvis tildekt av ei ufullstendig slimhinnefold kalla Hasners ventil. Overflødige tårer strøymer gjennom tårekanalen og trekker inn i nedre nasegang. Dette er grunnen til at ein kan få rennande nase når ein gret, og at ein somme gonger kan kjenne saltsmaken av tårer i munnen. Både tårekanalen og tåresekken er tekt med fleirlaga sylinderepitel som inneheld slimproduserande begerceller, og er begge omgjevne av bindevev. Dakryostenose (tårekanalstenose) er ei innsnevring av tårekanalen som fører til epifora, ei overflod av tårer. Medfødd dakryostenose kan føra til cystisk utviding av tårekanalen ved at det dannast ein dakryocystocele. Personar m...
