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.
How the structure of epithelial tissue help it carry out its functions in the body?
Simple squamous epithelium consists of one layer of thin, flat epithelial cells resting on a basement membrane formed of connective tissue. It is found in such places as the alveoli of the lung and lining blood vessels. Squamous epithelial cells are flat, tightly adherent to each other, thin, and have a smooth surface. Their minute thickness serves them well in the lung alveol. the alveoli are the site of gas exchange between the air in the lungs and the gases in the blood, which occurs by diffusion. The rate of diffusion is inversely dependent on the thickness of the surface through which diffusion occurs; the thicker the layers, the slower the diffusion. Gas exchange requires quick diffusion, therefore thin squamous epithelial cells are excellent for the job.Blood flow in blood vessels requires the lining surface of the vessels to be smooth, to reduce friction and aid blood flow. the smooth surface of squamous epithelial cells serves them well for this job as well.
What serves as an antioxidant in cell membranes protecting them and DNA inside cells from damage?

What benefit does CSF provide to the areas it covers?
Cerebral Spinal Fluid (CSF) serves to cushion these relatively delicate structures, as well as supplying important nutrients for brain cells.

What is the role of uterus lining?

What does Peritoneal ligaments do?
In higher vertebrates and some invertebrates (annelids, for instance), the peritoneum is the serous membrane that forms the lining of the abdominal cavity or the coelom - it covers most of the intra-abdominal (or coelomic) organs. It is composed of a layer of mesothelium supported by a thin layer of connective tissue. The peritoneum both supports the abdominal organs and serves as a conduit for their blood and lymph vessels and nerves. hope this answres you question
What membrane lines body cavities and covers the organs found in those cavities?
A serous membrane lines the body cavities and also covers the organs inside the cavities. The upper cells produce the lubricating serous fluid. This fluid has a consistency similar to thin mucus. There is a connective tissue layer that provides the blood vessels and nerves for the overlying secretory cells, and also serves as the binding layer which allows the whole serous membrane to adhere to organs and other structures.
