Solution

The correct option is A Oviduct and buccal cavity
  • Cilia can be defined as the hair-like structures that sit on top of a tissue. They wave back and forth which help move things.
  • Ciliated epithelium performs the function of moving particles or fluid over the epithelial surface in such structures as the trachea, bronchial tubes, and nasal cavities.
  • A ciliated columnar epithelium lines the lumen of the uterine tube, where currents generated by the cilia propel the egg cell toward the uterus. They are also present in the buccal cavity of frog.
  • Hence the correct answer is option A.
