Solution

The correct option is A 10th and 11th segment
Anterior loops are two pairs of loops like vessels, one pair in 10th and 11th segments. They connect the lateral-oesophageal blood vessels with the supra-oesophageal blood vessel. Anterior loops are non-muscular, non-valvular and non-pulsatile.
So, the correct option is '10th and 11th segment'.
