Mycorrhizae are a symbiosis, or close, long-term relationship between two or more species. In this case, the species are the roots of a host plant and a mycorrhizal fungus.

A ciliated pseudostratified columnar epithelium with goblet cells is a characteristic feature of parts of the respiratory system, where it is call respiratory epithelium. It contains several cell types in addition to ciliated, goblet and basal cells.lose to the surface of the epithelium, cells become more flattened.
