Match the columns.

	Column I		Column II
1	Cuboidal	(a)	Epidermis of skin
2	Ciliated	(b)	Inner lining of blood vessels
3	Columnar	(c)	Inner surface of gall bladder
4	squamous	(d)	Inner lining of fallopian tube
5	Keratinized	(e)	Lining of kidney tubules

A

1−e,2−d,3−c,4−b,5−a

B

1−e,2−d,3−b,4−c,5−a

C

1−c,2−d,3−e,4−b,5−a

D

Answer: Correct option is A)

A) Cuboidal epithelium - (5) Lining of the kidney tubules; they provide mechanical support and help in difussion.

B) Ciliated epithelium - (4) inner lining of the Fallopian tube (ciliated columnar epithelium for pushing the egg and later the dividing zygote towards the uterus).

C) Columnar - (3) inner surface of gall bladder (the innermost surface of the gall the bladder is made of columnar epithelial cells that have brush border like appearance due to the presence of microvilli).

D) Squamous epithelium - (2) inner lining of blood vessels (the inner lining of blood vessels are made up of squamous epithelium).

E) Keratinised squamous - (1) Epidermis of the skin (the squamous epithelial cells lining the outermost layer of the skin are keratinised, dead, and impervious to water and microorganisms).
