Answer»

The correct answer is (c) Increases the SURFACE area for absorption

For explanation I would say: Typhlosole is present in the intestine after the 26^th segment. It arises from the median fold of the DORSAL wall. It increases the surface area of absorption of NUTRIENTS from the DIGESTED food MATERIAL.
