Solution

The correct option is B Ileum
Peyer's patches are small masses of lymphatic tissue found throughout the ileum region of the small intestine. They are also known as aggregated lymphoid nodules and they play an important part of the immune system by monitoring intestinal bacteria populations and preventing the growth of the pathogenic bacteria in the intestines.
Thus, the correct answer is option (B), 'Ileum'.
