Answer:

Simple cuboidal epithelial tissue is specialized for diffusion and absorption. The reason our kidneys function the way they do is because of the movement of water and salts in and out of the kidney tubules.Likewise, the cuboidal shape of the cells allows greater surface area for absorption to take place.
