What is the function of cell lining the trachea?
The cilia are always moving, bacteria or particles of dust trapped in the mucus are moved away by cilia. The cilia waft the mucus containing bacteria and dust up to the back of the throat, so that it doesn't block up the trachea and thus keeps it clean.
Debris that is trapped in mucus is moved away from the lungs toward the throat by?
cilia
Projections from the cell that move materials and mucus are?
microtubules
What cell parts are cells made up of?
easy! theres the vacuole and the cell wall and the cell mucus and the nucleus and...
These are made by white blood cell to fight diseases?
mucus
The specialized cell found in simple and pseudostratified columnar epithelium that produces mucus is the?
goblet cell
What special features does a ciliated cell have to do its job?
A ciliated cell has a number of special features which helps in the normal functioning. They have protruding hairs which are able to trap anything that may be harmful to the cell in the mucus.
What cell produces mucus and cilia waft towards mouth and nose?

How does the paralysis of the cilia that lines the airways effect ones health?

What are mucus producing cells?
The cells that makes mucus are called goblet cells. These are glandular simple columnar epithelial cells that secrete gel forming mucins, which are the major component of mucus.
