Solution

The correct option is A Transitional tissue
The cells of middle layer of transitional epithelium are polyhedral or pear-shaped. These cells contain a prominent Golgi apparatus and an array of membrane-bound vesicles.These function in the packaging and transport of proteins, such as keratin, to the superficial cell layer.
So, the correct option is 'Transitional tissue'.
