Solution

The correct option is D Thymus gland

Ageing starts with the disappearance of thymus according to immunity theory . Thymic involution (shrinking of the thymus with age) is believed to be the main age-related change in the immune system, and this alteration begins after puberty.

So, the correct option is ‘thymus gland’.
