The ciliated columnar epithelium lines the trachea(windpipe) and bronchi(lungs). The squamous epithelium forms the delicate lining of cavities(nose and alveoli etc.)

they have cilia on the surface of their cells, these hairs 'waft' mucus

Type of tiisue in the lungs?
The type of tissue in the lungs is mostly epithelial. The other tissue is connective, and some of this is blood, which is a liquid connective tissue.
A carcinoma is a type of tumor that develops from what?
Epithelial cells that form the interior lining to the lungs.
How is a epithelial cell adapted to remove dirt from people's lungs?
A ciliated epithelial cell is adapted to remove dirt from people's lungs.
What epithelial type forms the walls of the air sacs of the lungs?
simple squamous epithelium
What type of muscle tissue is found in the lungs?
Lungs are made of spongey elastic tissue. Muscles around the lungs help it contract.
Is a celiated epithelial cell a part of an animal or plant?
Ciliated epithelial cells are usually found in animals. They are involved in movement and transportation of mucus or other substances along surfaces in organs such as the respiratory tract and reproductive system. Plants do not possess ciliated epithelial cells.
What tissue organ and system are epithelial cells in?
Epithelial cells are found in epithelial tissue, which is a type of tissue that lines the surfaces and cavities of the body. Epithelial tissue is present in various organs throughout the body, such as the skin, lungs, stomach, and intestines. Epithelial cells play a role in protecting underlying tissues, regulating the passage of molecules, and providing sensory functions.
What kind of epithelial tissue is in the alveolar sacs of the lungs?
Simple Squamous
What makes up the chicken lungs?
In brief chicken lungs are made of tissues,connective tissuesan epithelial tissues.
Type of tissue that covers the body surface?
Epithelial tissue covers the body surface. It serves as a protective barrier against physical, chemical, and microbial damage and helps regulate the exchange of substances between the body and its environment.
What kind of epithelial tissue is found in alveolar sacs of the lungs?
Simple Squamous
Is a stratified squamous epithelial tissue?
Stratified squamous epithelial tissue is composed of multiple layers of squamous (flattened) cells that provide protection against mechanical stress and damage. It is found in areas of the body that are subject to abrasion and friction, such as the skin, oral cavity, and esophagus. This tissue type allows for regeneration of cells to maintain its protective function.
