Solution

The correct option is B Proximal convoluted tubule of nephron
Cuboidal epithelium with brush border of microvilli is found in the proximal convoluted tubule (PCT) of the nephron. PCT is the longest part of the nephron that reabsorbs major substances like amino acids, glucose, ions, etc. from the ultrafiltrate.
So, the correct answer is 'Proximal convoluted tubule of nephron'
