Cilia in ciliated columnar epithelium move rhythmically to push mucus forward, aiding in the clearance of debris and pathogens from the respiratory tract.
Cilia in ciliated columnar epithelium help move mucus and other substances along the surface of tissues. Their coordinated beating motion creates directional flow, facilitating processes like debris removal and respiratory mucociliary clearance.
