Answer:

A. stratified squamous epithelium; absorption

Explanation:

Stratified squamous epithelium are composed of multiple layers of cells which rest on a basement membrane. Superficial layers are made of squamous cells and underlying layers can also be made of cuboidal or columnar cells.

Stratified squamous epithelium  is generally present in area where there is frequent physical or chemical abrasion. It protects the underlying structures from the stress. Hence, it is found wherever the body comes in contact with the outer environment like skin, digestive system and respiratory system. It also prevents water loss and desiccation.

However, while not important for the individual, sexual reproduction is important for the species. It allows genetic variability among offspring, as well as mutations. This ensures that not all members of a species are the same, and in this way, they have a better chance of surviving. Moreover, it allows for offspring to be produced at a faster rate.
