Solution

The correct option is B Sertoli cells
Sertoli cells
Supporting cells found in between spermatogonia are Sertoli cells.
Sertoli cells or nurse cells provide nourishment to the developing sperms.

Germinal cell
The germinal cells give rise to the male (sperm) and female (egg) gametes. They are located in the gonads and are called spermatogonia in males and oogonia in females.

Epithelial cells
Epithelial cells are the types of cells that line the body surfaces. They are present on organs, skin, blood vessels etc. These cells sit on a basement membrane and have a free surface.


Tissue space
A space within tissues not lined with epithelium and containing tissue fluid is called tissue space. The blood plasma along with the WBCs comes out of the blood vessels in these extracellular spaces to form the lymph.

Final answer (B) Sertoli cells
