    C. mucous membrane, smooth muscle, and fibrous connective tissue.

    Explanation:

    The tube that connects the kidney to the urinary bladder is known as the ureter, it carries urine and is located in the abdomen (upper half) and the pelvic area (lower half).

    Its wall has three layers:

    Outer layer: known as the fibrous coat, is made of fibrous connective tissue. Middle layer: is made of smooth muscle, therefore is known as the muscular coat The inner layer: known as the mucosa, is made of transitional epithelium and it secretes mucus.

    Considering this information we can conclude that the correct answer is C. mucous membrane, smooth muscle, and fibrous connective tissue.

    I hope you find this information useful and interesting! Good luck!
