Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The cuboidal epithelium is marked by the presence of cube-shaped cells in a single layer. Because it is involved in absorption it is found in the tubular parts of the kidney where maximum absorption of substances takes place from the glomerular filtrate. These substances include sodium ions, glucose, amino acids, etc.
Detailed explanation-2: -Simple cuboidal epithelium consists of one layer of cells whose height roughly equals their width, so in sections perpendicular to the surface, cells resemble small box-like cubes.
Detailed explanation-3: -Simple columnar epithelial cells line the tissue of the lung. Simple cuboidal epithelial cells are involved in the filtering of blood in the kidney.
