Difference between simple ciliated columnar and non ciliated columnar?

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.
