Solution

The correct option is D Stomach
Answer :

i) In the empty state, the stomach is contracted and its mucosa and submucosa are thrown up into distinct folds called rugae.
ii) When distended with food, the rugae are ironed out and flat.
iii) These are the openings of gastric pits which extend into the mucosa as straight and branched tubules, forming gastric glands.

Therefore the correct answer is option D. Stomach.
