Solution

The correct option is C Loop of Henle
Metanephric Kidney develops from posterior part (metanephros) of nephrotome while remaining part is destroyed. Nephrons are well differentiated into Bowman's capsule, PCT (proximal convoluted tubule), DCT (distal convoluted tubule) and a loop of Henle, e.g., reptile, aves, and mammals.
So, the correct answer is option C.
