A ciliated epithelial cell is adapted to remove dirt from people's lungs.
because they want to......... ps when a giraffe baby is born it drops from 6 feet from the air and doesnt get hurt!
There are microtubules below the cilia, which causes the cilia to move in a Mexican wave sort of movement. This sweeps the mucas up throught the trachea (mucas is produced by goblet cells) and up to the top of the trachea where it is swallowed so that the germs are killed by the hydrochloric acid in the stomach.

In brief chicken lungs are made of tissues,connective tissuesan epithelial tissues.

Ciliated epithelial cells are usually found in animals. They are involved in movement and transportation of mucus or other substances along surfaces in organs such as the respiratory tract and reproductive system. Plants do not possess ciliated epithelial cells.
Epithelial cells that form the interior lining to the lungs.
With each breath, the lungs take in oxygen and remove carbon dioxide. the lungs have a great surface area thanks to the alveoli; have an extremely thin (1 cell thick) epithelium.
the goblet cells in the bronchioles produce a mucus which traps foreign substances in the airway such as pollen, pathogens and dust particles. The cilia of the ciliated cells will then waft the mucus and the trapped particles up to the larynx where it can be swallowed and the pathogens can be destroyed by the stomach acid. The cilia can waft due to the energy produced in the cells (in the form of ATP) by the mitochondria.
The type of tissue in the lungs is mostly epithelial. The other tissue is connective, and some of this is blood, which is a liquid connective tissue.
Lungs are made of spongey elastic tissue. Muscles around the lungs help it contract.
