What is the function of cuboidal epithelium?
This type of epithelium is frequently found in glands, and the pancreas, where its function is secretion.
What is the dominant function of stratified epithelium?
The dominant function of stratified epithelium is to protect underlying structures from mechanical wear and tear.
What is function of cilia in gaseous exchange?
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
What is the function of the cubidal epithelium?

What is the function of cilia in tracheal epithelium?
Wow you fell for it
Structure and function of the airway?
The airway of the respiratory system is mainly to do with the trachea, bronchi, bronchioles and the alveoli duct. Trachea composes of Pseudostratified columnar, ciliated epithelium, Goblet cells, Sero-mucous glands and Cartilage rings. Its main function is to allow air to pass and reach the bronchioles and to trap dust by the presence of the cilia lining its epithelium membrane. The bronchi is composed of Pseudostratified columnar, ciliated epithelium (shorter), Goblet cells (fewer), Sero-mucous glands, Cartilage, Smooth muscle. main function is to bring air into the lungs because their walls are too thick to permit gass exchange. The bronchioles is made up of Simple columnar or cuboidal & ciliated epithelium,No goblet cells,Smooth muscle (relatively abundant), Clara cells is to permit the movement of gas int the alveoli duct in-order for gaseous exchange to take place.
What is the function of simple columnar epithelium in gallbladder?
The function of the gallbladder is to store bile produced by the liver
Which epithelium is also called Pavement epithelium?
Simple squamous epithelium is also known as pavement epithelium due to its thin, flattened shape resembling a pavement. It is found in areas where filtration or diffusion is the primary function, such as in the alveoli of the lungs and the lining of blood vessels.
Does the esophagus have a mucosa layer?
Yes, the esophagus has a mucosa layer. This innermost layer is composed of stratified squamous epithelium, which helps protect the esophagus from abrasion caused by food as it passes through. Beneath the epithelium, the mucosa also contains a lamina propria and a muscularis mucosae, contributing to the overall structure and function of the esophagus.
What is the Difference between epithelium and connective tissues?
Epithelium is a tissue that covers surfaces and lines cavities, serving a protective and absorptive function. Connective tissue supports and connects other tissues and organs in the body, providing structural integrity, cushioning, and flexibility. Epithelium is composed of closely packed cells with little extracellular matrix, while connective tissue has cells dispersed within a matrix of fibers and ground substance.
What tissue become lungs?
The lungs tissues are made up mainly of squamous epithelial tissue (called alveolar epithelium in the lungs). This type of tissue serves a critical function within the lungs because it allows the transfer and exchange of gases with little or no resistance. The advantages are a short distance between the Oxygen in the alveoli and the blood in the capillaries.The lungs also contain ciliated epithelium. A function of ciliated epithelium is stimulation of goblet cells to produce a mucous-like substance that not only lubricates but also traps pathogens and particles in the bronchi.
What is the function of simple cuboidal epithelium?
This type of epithelium is frequently found in glands, and the pancreas, where its function is secretion.
