Solution

The correct option is D Vagina, cervix and oral cavity
The non-keratinized stratified squamous epithelium includes the corneal epithelium and lines the mucosa of oral cavity, esophagus, anal canal, ectocervix and vagina.
These surfaces must be kept moist by bodily secretions to prevent them from drying out.
So, the correct option is 'Vagina, cervix and oral cavity'.
