Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Cilia beat in a coordinated back-and-forth motion, which either moves the cell through fluid or moves fluid over the surface of the cell. For example, the cilia of some protozoans (such as Paramecium) are responsible both for cell motility and for sweeping food organisms over the cell surface and into the oral cavity.
Detailed explanation-2: -Respiratory epithelium. The goblet cells secrete mucus, which forms a blanket over the tops of the ciliated cells. The regular, coordinated beating of the cilia sweeps the mucus up and out of the airways, carrying any debris that is stuck to it.
Detailed explanation-3: -Final answer: Epithelial cells with cilia are found in the respiratory tract of our body.
