 Last week I was excited to watch ciliated columnar epithelial tissue under foldscope .  I took a permanent slide and observed under foldscope. Watching ciliated columnar tissue was beyond description. I observed that the cells of this tissue were long and had hair-like  projections called cilia .This tissue helps in absorption  and secretion .
