Solution

The correct option is C Mesonephric
In mesonephros, the kidney develops by the formation of mesonephric tubules from the intermediate mesoderm. It is one of three excretory organs that develop in vertebrates. It serves as the main excretory organ of aquatic vertebrates such as fishes and amphibians and as a temporary kidney in reptiles, birds, and mammals.
Therefore, the correct answer is option B.
