Type: MCQ-conceptual-Medium-Class 11

Select the correct matching –

A

Cuboidal epithelium-Alveolar wall

B

Columnar epithelium-Stomach

C

Ciliated epithelium-Intestine

D

Squamous epithelium-Germinal epithelium

Correct Answer

Option B

Detailed Explanation

Columnar epithelium is found lining the stomach, where it plays a crucial role in secretion and absorption, particularly of gastric juices and nutrients. Option A is incorrect because cuboidal epithelium is typically found in glandular tissues and not in the alveolar wall, which is lined by simple squamous epithelium. Option C is incorrect as ciliated epithelium is primarily found in the respiratory tract, not the intestine, which is lined by simple columnar epithelium. Option D is also incorrect because germinal epithelium, which is involved in gamete production, is composed of cuboidal epithelium rather than squamous epithelium.
