Solution

The correct option is A Intestine.
The brush border columnar epithelium has its exposed side or side
facing the lumen with its plasma membrane thrown into numerous tiny finger-like folds or projections called the microvilli. They are present in the
stomach, intestine, etc to facilitate absorption. So, the correct answer is ‘Intestine’.
