Solution

The correct option is D Thyroid gland
The thyroid is a butterfly-shaped gland that sits low on the front of the neck. Your thyroid lies below your Adam's apple, along with the front of the windpipe. The thyroid has two side lobes, connected by a bridge (isthmus) in the middle.

So, the correct answer is 'Thyroid gland'.
