Best Answer

Most hollow organs are lined with epithelial tissue for protection, as in blood vessels. In the case of the respiratory tract and the gastrointestinal tract there is an additional lining that forms a lining consisting of mucous membranes, and even cilia and goblet cells. The cilia helps move the mucus to the outside of the body and the goblet cells provide the mucus to help it move along. On average, a person produces about a quart of mucus per day in order to keep the respiratory and digestive tracts running smoothly.
