The correct answer is: $\frac{49}{3}$
We have,
$$
y=\sqrt{x}, x=\sqrt{y}, x=1, x=4
$$
The graph of curves are


Area of shaded region
$$
\begin{aligned}
& =\int_1^4\left(x^2-\sqrt{x}\right) d x=\left[\frac{x^3}{3}-\frac{2}{3}(x)^{3 / 2}\right]_1^4 \\
& =\left(\frac{64}{3}-\frac{16}{3}\right)-\left(\frac{1}{3}-\frac{2}{3}\right) \\
& =\frac{64-16-1+2}{3}=\frac{49}{3}
\end{aligned}
$$
