Solution

The correct option is B Glandular epithelium
Epithelial cells often acquire additional specialization as gland cells, which can secrete substances at the epithelial surface. Sometimes a portion of the epithelial tissue folds inward, and a multicellular gland is formed. This is called the glandular epithelium.
Hence, the correct option is B.
