What are the hair like structures that line the trachea?
Trachea's inner lining(lining that faces the hollow side) is comprised of ciliated epithelium which rests on a basement membrane made of protein fibers. In between the ciliates cells the goblet cells are situated. Beneath the epithelium is an area of loos tissue and tracheal glands that secrets mucus (both tracheal glands and goblet cells secrets mucus so don't get confused which one produces mucus). There is a C-Shaped cartilage in outer lining that supports the trachea.
