Germinal epithelium of ovary is formed of

AColumnar epithelium
BSquamous epithelium
CCuboidal epithelium
Correct Answer
DStratified epithelium

Solution

$$\textbf{Correct option: C}$$

$$\textbf{Solution:}$$

Option A:

$$\bullet$$ Columnar epithelium has a layer of elongated large cells with elongated nuclei resting on a basement membrane.

$$\bullet$$ This layer is present in the regions where a thick lining is required like in the stomach and intestine. Both of these areas have extreme pH values.

Option B:

$$\bullet$$ Squamous epithelium is a very thin, flat layer of cells located in the organs where the exchange of materials takes place.

$$\bullet$$ It is present in the air sacs of lungs (gaseous exchange), linings of blood and lymph vessels, and glomerulus (diffusion of substance).

Option C:

$$\bullet$$ Germinal epithelium of ovary is formed of cuboidal epithelium. It has cube-shaped cells with a centrally located round nucleus.

$$\bullet$$ The cells are packed together in a single layer and are attached to the basement membrane.

$$\bullet$$ The cells of germinal epithelium line the interior of the ovary in females and seminiferous tubules of testes in males.

$$\bullet$$ The germinal epithelium gives rise to the germ cells that form gametes in both males and females.

Option D:

$$\bullet$$ Stratified epithelium is the epithelial tissue containing more than one layer of cells.

$$\bullet$$ It is located in the glandular cells and almost every region of skin where the body comes in direct contact with the outside environment.

Hence the correct option is option C.
