FIrst, don't get carried away by option 2. We have a more specific answer option 4. Look at the below for verification
The Pronephros
Is the cranialmost set of tubes, which mostly regress
The mesonephros
Is located along the midsection of the embryo and develops into mesonephric tubules and the mesonephric duct (Wolffian duct).
These tubules carry out some kidney function at first, but then many of the tubules regress. However, the mesonephric duct persists and opens to the cloaca at the tail of the embryo.
The metanephros
Gives rise to the definitive adult kidney.
Develops from an outgrowth of the caudal mesonephric duct, the ureteric bud, and from a condensation of nearby renogenic intermediate mesoderm, the metanephric blastema
