Solution
The correct option is A Intestine Columnar epithelium is a type of epithelium composed of group of tall cells that arranged in the pillar-like structure. They are found in the inner lining of the intestine. They secrete digestive enzymes and absorb digested food. The gall bladder is a simple muscular sac, lined by a simple columnar epithelium. It receives and stores bile from the liver via the hepatic and then cystic duct, and can store about 50 to 100ml in humans.
