Epithelial tissue or more simply epithelium covers and lines body surface and forms glands. Cells of epithelium are very set very close to each other, neighbouring cells are held together by cell junctions or desmosomes. The desmosomes of macula adherens made of tonofibrils. The epithelial tissue rests on a thin extracellular basement membrane, secreated partly by epithelial cells and partly by underlying connective tissue. Epithelial cells may have microvilli, sterocilia, kinocilia or flagella. They are of two types: connective and lining epithelium and gladular epithelium
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.
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.
Ciliated epithelium is a type of tissue in the human body that contains hair-like structures called cilia. These cilia help move substances along the surface of the tissue, such as mucus in the respiratory tract. Ciliated epithelium is found in areas like the respiratory tract, fallopian tubes, and parts of the brain.
Ciliated epithelium secretes mucus, which helps to trap and remove foreign particles and pathogens from the respiratory tract or reproductive system.
The fallopian tubes are lined by a ciliated epithelium in females. The cilia help move the egg from the ovary to the uterus for potential fertilization.
Pseudostratified ciliated columnar epithelium lines most of the respiratory tract. This type of epithelium helps to trap foreign particles and move them out of the respiratory system with the help of 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.
Simple columnar epithelium of the digestive tract can present as either ciliated or non-ciliated. The ciliated moves mucus in the respiratory system, the non-ciliated lines the gastrointestinal tract.

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.
