The correct option is D all the above
There are two types of epithelial tissues - simple epithelium and compound epithelium.

Simple epithelium is composed of a single layer of cells and functions as a lining for body cavities, ducts and tubes.

The compound epithelium consists of two or more cell layers and has protective function as it does in our skin.
