Answer:
The cuboidal epithelium is composed of epithelial cells that are distinctively cuboidal in shape. The cell comprising the cuboidal epithelium is approximately as wide as it is tall. It is therefore cube-like (thus, the name). When viewed from atop it appears square in shape.

Answer :-
✿ Cubodical epithelial?
- ➽ Simple cuboidal epithelium is a type of simple epithelium consisting of cube-shaped cells with rounds and more or less centrally located nucleus. They are mostly derived to suit the function of the particular organs better. Because the simple cuboidal epithelium has a single layer of cells, all the cube-shaped cells are directly attached to the basement membrane.
✿ Structure of the simple cuboidal epithelium
- ➽ The cells in the cuboidal epithelium are not strictly cubical as those cells cannot form the ducts. However, they are roughly as tall as they are wide.
- ➽ The cells are thicker with a somewhat larger and round centrally located nucleus.
- ➽ The shape and size of the cells are similar, each more or less cube-like in form.
- ➽ Their greater thickness allows cytoplasm to be abundant in mitochondria and other organelles for a high level of active transport across the epithelium and other functions
✿ Functions of the simple cuboidal epithelium
- ➽ Owing to the shape of the cells, the primary functions of the simple cuboidal epithelium are secretion, absorption, and covering.
