Solution

The correct option is C
Ciliated epithelium in the fallopian tube

Simple cuboidal epithelial tissue consists of a single layer of cuboidal cells on the basement membrane. At some places the cuboidal epithelium is ciliated, like in the fallopian tubes. The beating movement of the cila helps in moving the ovum from the fallopian tube down the reproductive tract.
