Intestine absorbs the digested food materials. What type of epithelial cells are responsible for that?

Columnar epithelium cells are found in the intestine and are responsible for absorbing nutrients from digested food.

Stratified squamous epithelium cells are found in the lining of mouth and esophagus; they protect areas that undergo wear and tear. Spindle fibers are responsible for the division of chromosomes during nuclear division. Cuboidal epithelium cells are found in organs like a salivary gland, kidney tubules and are concerned with secretion and diffusion.
