The correct Answer is:
### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Simple Epithelium**: - Simple epithelium is a type of epithelial tissue that consists of a single layer of cells. This characteristic distinguishes it from stratified epithelium, which has multiple layers. 2. **Analyzing the Options**: - **Option A**: "They are arranged indiscriminately" - This statement is incorrect. Simple epithelial cells are arranged in a specific manner to form a single layer. - **Option B**: "They make a definite layer" - This statement is correct. Simple epithelium is characterized by its formation of a definite single layer of cells. - **Option C**: "Continue to divide and help in organ function" - This statement is misleading. While epithelial cells can regenerate, simple epithelium does not primarily function in organ division; its main roles are protection, absorption, and secretion. - **Option D**: "None all right" - This option is incorrect since Option B is a true statement. 3. **Conclusion**: - Based on the analysis, the correct characteristic of simple epithelium is that they make a definite layer. Therefore, the answer is **Option B**.
