Is glandular epithelium formed by columnar epithelium???

If not, then y it the review test above it has been associated with columnar?

Doesn't the columnar epitheliun tissue form the ciliated one???

pls answer before 18-8-12

Sometimes a portion of the epithelial tissue folds inwards giving rise to multicellular gland called glandular epithelium. It can be formed from either of the cuboidal or columnar epithelium depending upon the location of its formation. Glandular epithelium cells secrete substances like enzymes, hormones, milk, mucus, sweat, wax and saliva at the epithelial surface so they will be present in the regions of secretions.
