Absolutely. This type of epithelial cell is found mainly in the trachea and respiratory tract, and any system open to the outside must have mucous to keep it functioning properly for diffusion and cell health. Goblet cells make the mucous, and they are found in respiratory, digestive and reproductive system epithelium.YESYes. You have them in bronchial epithelium, probably.

What type of epithelium are found in the nasopharynx?

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.


The respiratory epithelium of the conducting airways consists of?

The respiratory epithelium of the conducting airways consists of ciliated pseudostratified columnar epithelial cells, goblet cells that secrete mucus, basal cells for repair and renewal, and brush cells for chemosensation. This epithelium helps to trap and remove particulate matter and pathogens from the airways while also assisting in warming and humidifying incoming air.


What is psuedostratified columnar epithelium?

looks as if it is more than one layer, but not all cells reach free surfaceoften has goblet cells and ciliathe function is secreting and moving mucousfound in the repiratory tract from nose to bronchi, and some parts of the male reproductive tract.


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 cells are in a simple columnar and pseudostratified columnar epithelia produce protective mucous coatings over the mucous membranes?

Goblet cells are the cells in both simple columnar and pseudostratified columnar epithelia that produce protective mucous coatings over mucous membranes. These cells secrete mucus, which helps to lubricate and protect the surface of the tissues from damage, dehydration, and invasion by pathogens.

What cells line the trachea?

The cilia are always moving, bacteria or particles of dust trapped in the mucus are moved away by cilia. The cilia waft the mucus containing bacteria and dust up to the back of the throat, so that it doesn't block up the trachea and thus keeps it clean.


The specialized cell found in simple and pseudostratified columnar epithelium that produces mucus is the?

Goblet cell. It's responsible for secreting mucus, which helps protect and lubricate the epithelial surface.

Where are goblet cells found?

They are found scattered among the epithelial lining of organs, like the intestinal and respiratory tract. They are also found in the trachea, brounchus. They are also in the respiratory tract, small intestines, the colon, and conjunctiva in the upper eyelid .This information was all found on wikipedia so i cannot take all of the credit for this.

Has cilia to trap and remove mucus and dust particles?

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.


What type of epithelium is designed for absorption and secretion and is found throughout much of the GI tract?

Simple columnar epithelium is the type of epithelium designed for absorption and secretion found throughout much of the gastrointestinal tract. It is characterized by tall, closely packed cells that have microvilli to increase surface area for absorption and goblet cells for secretion of mucus.


What cells are included in the respiratory system?

The respiratory is made of different cells. Some of them are connective tissue such as cartilage, others are epithelial, like the lining inside, and others are musclular like the ones that help expand and contract to tubes.
