Ciliated pseudostratified<br />
columnar epithelium with<br />
goblet cells<br />
Note the thick basement membrane of the respiratory<br />
pseudostratified columnar epithelium.<br />
The main function of<br />
cilia is to sweep or<br />
move fluids, cells, or<br />
particulate matter<br />
across cell surface<br />
in the lumen as to<br />
remove dust in the<br />
lungs. Microtubules<br />
of the axoneme are<br />
at the core of cilia<br />
and make them<br />
motile.
