The cilia need energy provided by the mitochondrion to move. The other cells do not move do not have the need for the same amount of energy.

No, cells of the esophageal epithelium are not ciliated. The esophagus is lined with stratified squamous epithelium, which lacks cilia. Cilia are more commonly found in respiratory epithelium to help move mucus and particles.
No, the lining of the trachea is not simple squamous epithelium; it is primarily composed of pseudostratified ciliated columnar epithelium. This type of epithelium features cilia that help trap and move debris and mucus out of the respiratory tract. The presence of goblet cells, which produce mucus, is also a characteristic of this lining, aiding in the protection and moistening of the airway.
The ciliated columnar epithelium lines the trachea(windpipe) and bronchi(lungs). The squamous epithelium forms the delicate lining of cavities(nose and alveoli etc.)
The nasopharynx is lined with respiratory epithelium, which consists of pseudostratified ciliated columnar epithelial cells. These cells have cilia that help trap and move mucus and particles along the respiratory tract for removal.
More often in the area of bronchi there is formation of viscous mucous going through which becomes at extreme level during the cold and cough as normally we experience during the winter times. But the main function of ciliated cell is to provide the more surface area to enzymes which are digesting or metabolizing the mucous continuously.This answer does not answer what the special function is lol
Simple ciliated columnar epithelium has cilia that help move substances across the cell surface, whereas non-ciliated columnar epithelium lacks cilia. Non-ciliated columnar epithelium is involved in secretion and absorption, whereas ciliated columnar epithelium is mainly found in areas where the movement of mucus or particles is important, such as the respiratory tract.
Little hairs called cilia. Get on my level
Wow you fell for it
Little hairs called Cilia, which help filter dust from the air as it passes into the lungs.
The respiratory system has cilia lining the airways that sweep mucus and dust particles toward the throat to be swallowed or expelled. These cilia act as a filter to help protect the lungs from harmful substances.
A single layer of elongated cells is called simple columnar epithelium. These cells are tall and narrow, often found lining the digestive tract where absorption and secretion take place. Simple columnar epithelium can have specialized features like cilia or microvilli to aid in their functions.
There are tiny little hairs within various body systems such as the respiratory system, and other systems. These little hairs are called cilia. They are responsible for clearing out debris and other foreign invaders. The cilia is what produces the actions such as coughing, or sneezing etc.
