Question

The type of epithelial cells which line the inner surface of fallopian tubes, bronchioles and uterus are known as:

• A. Squamous epithelium
• B. Stratified epithelium
• C. Ciliated epithelium
• D. Cubical epithelium

Answer 1

The correct option is C Ciliated epithelium

Ciliated epithelium is made of simple columnar cells but possesses fine hair-like cilia on their free surfaces.

These cells are found in the respiratory tract, from the posterior third of the nose to the bronchioles, also present in the uterus and fallopian tubes of females.

Ciliated epithelium performs the function of moving particles or fluid over the epithelial surface.

Hence, the correct answer is option C.
