squamous epithelium are formed from one layer squamous cell . squamous cells are thin,large and flat. It's function is absorption and transport of materials . columnar epithelium lines most of the organs of the digestibe tract. They act as a lubricant.Cuboidal epithelium is found in organs that are used for secrition like salivary glands.

squamous epethilium
cells are thin and flat and form a delicate lining
location- oesophagus, lining of mouth
function - protection
Stratified squamous epithelium -
squamous epithelium when arranged in layers is called stratified squamous epithelium
present in skin(many layers may be present)
Function - protection
columnar epithelium -
cells are of pillar like shape
Function - helps in absorbtion and secretion
Location - inner lining of intestine
Ciliated columnar epithelium
in some organs the columnar epithelium has hair like projections called cilia such an epithelium is called ciliated columnar epithelium
location - trachea ( respiratory track)
function movement of mucus
cuboidal epithelium
has cube like cells
function-provide mechanical supporr
location - inner lining of kindney tubules and ducts of salivary gland
