It's job is to make the cells have a greater surface area, and to help move secretions or objects around so that they do not block or get in the way of anything else.
There are ciliated epithelium in your nasal passages to help move mucus out, so that you can still breath. Also they are found in a woman's uterine wall, to help move the egg to where it is safe and supported.

The respiratory epithelium of the conducting airways consists of?
pseudostratified ciliated columnar epithelium
What type of epithelium are found in the nasopharynx?
psuedostratified ciliated columnar epithelial cells and goblet cells
What is the function of the ciliated epithelium of the tracheobronchial tree?
The function of the ciliated epithelium of the tracheobronchial tree is secretion and absorption. These cells control the mucus produced.
Where is ciliated columnar epithelium found?
Ciliated epithelium is located in the lining of most body cavities. Some of the cavities that have ciliated epithelium are the lungs, trachea, and nose. Ciliated epithelium serves to keep dust and debris out of the lungs and control the flow of mucus.
Pseudostratified ciliated columnar epithelium have projections called?
Cilia

Simple columnar epithelium of the digestive tract is characterized by?
Simple columnar epithelium of the digestive tract can present as either ciliated or non-ciliated. The ciliated moves mucus in the respiratory system, the non-ciliated lines the gastrointestinal tract.
Is ciliated epithelium present in the urinary bladder?
No.
What tissue propels sheets of mucus?
a ciliated epithelium
Pseudostratified ciliated columnar epithelium have projections called?
Cilia
What covers the inner surface of the thoracic wall?
ciliated epithelium
Is the stomach lined with epithelium?
Simple columnar epithelium cells line the stomach. These cells also line the small intestine and the large intestine. They are uni-layered and are of two types - ciliated and non-ciliated.
The inner lining of the trachea is composed of?
Pseudostratified columnar epithelium (ciliated form)
