Solution

The correct option is C Epidermis of skin
The correct option is A.
Sebaceous glands develop from the same tissue that gives rise to the epidermis of the skin. After birth, activity of the glands decreases until there is almost no activity during ages 2–6 years, and then increases to a peak of activity during puberty, due to heightened levels of androgens.
