A
Simple Columnar Epithelial
B
Simple Cuboidal Epithelial
C
Pseudostratified Epithelial
D
Stratified Transitional Epithelial
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Glandular epithelial tissue is found dispersed throughout surface epithelium and in a variety of glands. Goblet cells are commonly found along the intestines, nasal mucosa, and respiratory tract. Secretory epithelial cells are often found along the stomach and cervical canal.

Detailed explanation-2: -Goblet cells are mucin-producing cells found scattered among other cells of the intestinal villi and crypts in lesser numbers than the absorptive cells. Overall, they are found in greater numbers in the large intestine and distal ileum than in the rest of the intestine.

Detailed explanation-3: -Goblet cells are unicellular intraepithelial mucin-secreting glands scattered within simple epithelia, such as cuboidal, columnar, and pseudostratified epithelia. Their name corresponds to their shape, as they resemble a goblet, with their narrow bases and wide apex.

Detailed explanation-4: -Respiratory epithelium is ciliated pseudostratified columnar epithelium found lining most of the respiratory tract; it is not present in the larynx or pharynx.
