Solution
The correct option is A Epithelial Epithelium is a tissue that covers organs and surfaces of the bodies of animals, including both outside surfaces (the skin) and inside cavities and lumen (interior of a vessel, such as the small central space in an artery or vein through which blood flows). It covers the inner lining of blood vessels and is called endothelium.
