Answer: (B) (A)-(II), (B)-(III), (C)-(IV), (D)-(I). Answer: (B) [option (2)] (A)-(II), (B)-(III), (C)-(IV), (D)-(I).

  1. A.(A)-(II), (B)-(III), (C)-(I), (D)-(IV)
  2. B.(A)-(II), (B)-(III), (C)-(IV), (D)-(I)
  3. C.(A)-(III), (B)-(II), (C)-(I), (D)-(IV)
  4. D.(A)-(III), (B)-(II), (C)-(IV), (D)-(I)

Correct Answer

(B) (A)-(II), (B)-(III), (C)-(IV), (D)-(I)

Solution & Explanation

Answer: (B) [option (2)] (A)-(II), (B)-(III), (C)-(IV), (D)-(I). Solution: COLUMNAR epithelium (tall cells with nuclei at the base) lines the inner surface of the stomach and intestine, aiding secretion and absorption — so A → II. CILIATED epithelium (columnar/cuboidal cells bearing cilia) lines the inner surface of the bronchioles (and fallopian tubes), moving mucus/particles — so B → III. SQUAMOUS epithelium is a thin, flat single layer; the simple squamous lining of blood vessels is called ENDOTHELIUM, suited to diffusion/filtration — so C → IV. CUBOIDAL epithelium (cube-like cells) forms the lining of the DUCTS OF GLANDS and tubular nephron parts, for secretion and absorption — so D → I.
