HI Amish - which level are you at ?
Anyway this is a qustion about speed of mitosis. so You need to think of the most rapidly dividing cells

white blood cells
gut epithelial cells
lung epithelial cells
and think of a fourth - oh reproductive

in terms of least - you need to think of the least division and that is gonna be neural.
