Solution

The correct option is A Trachea
Ciliated columnar epithelial cells are rectangular in shape and have between 200 to 300 hair-like protrusions, called as cilia. Cells are interconnected via desmosomes and tight junctions. Ciliated columnar epithelial cells are found mainly in the tracheal and bronchial regions of the pulmonary system and also in the fallopian tubes of the female reproductive system.
Hence the correct option is A.
