Question:

Choose the correctly matched pair. Inner lining of salivary ducts - ciliated epithelium; Moist surface of buccal cavity - glandular epithelium; Tubular parts of nephrons - cuboidal epithelium; Pancreatic duct - squamous epithelium

Pancreatic duct - squamous epithelium

Moist surface of buccal cavity - glandular epithelium

Tubular parts of nephrons - cuboidal epithelium

Inner lining of salivary ducts - ciliated epithelium

Solution:

The proximal convoluted tubule, which is the longest part of the renal tubule has simple tall cuboidal epithelium, with a brush border (microvilli). The epithelial cells in the distal convoluted tubule are cuboidal, with very few microvilli. The inner lining of salivary ducts has stratified columnar epithelia. A stratified squamous non-keratinized epithelium lines the oral surface. Bronchioles are lined by simple cuboidal epithelium. So, the correct answer is option C.
