Answer- A. Mesonephros
The ureteric bud, also known as the metanephrogenic diverticulum, is a protrusion from the mesonephric duct during the development of the urinary and reproductive organs.
It later develops into a conduit (channel) for urine drainage from the kidneys, which, in contrast, originate from the metanephric blastema.
The metanephrogenic blastema or metanephric blastema (or metanephric mesenchyme, or metanephric mesoderm) is one of the two embryological structures that give rise to the kidney, the other being the ureteric bud.
