• A. Breast
• B. Intestine
• C. Lungs
• D. Liver

Answer 1

The correct option is C Lungs

Bronchogenic carcinoma is a malignant neoplasm of the lung arising from the epithelium of the bronchus or bronchiole. The neoplasm may grow into the bronchial lumen, along with the mucosa or into the bronchial wall and adjacent lung parenchyma. Bronchogenic carcinomas begin as a small focus of atypical epithelial cells within the bronchial mucosa. Eventually, the neoplasm spreads to regional lymph nodes and distant organs such as the liver, brain and bone.

So, the correct answer is 'Lungs'.
