Q.Prevention of substances from leaking across the tissue is provided by

Cuboidal epithelium is specialised to carry out BOTH secretion and absorption, which is why it lines glands and kidney tubules.

Cuboidal epithelium consists of a single layer of cube-shaped cells (as wide as they are tall). It is found lining structures such as the tubules of the kidney (proximal and distal convoluted tubules) and the ducts of many exocrine glands (e.g., salivary glands, pancreas, thyroid follicles).

…

Ciliated epithelium lines the trachea, where its beating cilia move mucus and trapped particles away from the lungs.

Different linings suit different organs based on their function:

• The gall bladder and digestive tract are typically lined by simple columnar epithelium suited to secretion and absorption, not ciliary movement.
• The skin is covered by stratified squamous epithelium for protection against abrasion. …

Cuboidal epithelium is a versatile lining tissue whose cube-shaped cells carry out both secretion and absorption, depending on location.

Cuboidal epithelium consists of a single layer of cube-shaped cells, typically found lining structures such as the proximal and distal convoluted tubules of the kidney nephron, the ducts of glands (salivary glands, pancreas), and the follicles of the thyroid gland. In the kidney tubules, the cuboidal cells are specialised for absorption — they reabsorb useful substances such as glucose, amino acids, ions, and water from the filtrate back into the blood, often aided by microvilli that increase their surface area. In glandular ducts and thyroid follicles, similar cuboidal cells are specialised for secretion — producing and releasing substances such as enzymes, mucus, or hormones. Because this tissue type performs both roles in different locations of the body …
