C
Mesonephroi consists of glomeruli and mesonephric tubules. These tubules open into the mesonephric ducts
D
All are the right
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The urogenital system is formed from intermediate mesoderm, while the lining of the urethra, urinary bladder, and reproductive system is composed of endoderm.

Detailed explanation-2: -The developmental process of ureter starts as an outgrowth of the mesonephric duct at the end of the fourth week of embryonic life. The outpouching then grows cranially to meet and unite with the metanephric cap. The time of this meeting and union is important, as it determines future nephric development and ascent.
