Solution
The correct option is C Ciliated epithelium In humans, the internal linings of the tube-like structures are made up of ciliated epithelium. The cells bear short hair-like projections called cilia, which beat and allow the movement of the particles. The fallopian tubes are lined with cilia, whose lashing allows to move the egg or the mucus in the cavity.
