Solution

The correct option is A Goitre
A goitre is a swelling of the neck or larynx resulting from enlargement of the thyroid gland (thyromegaly), associated with a thyroid gland that is not functioning properly. Over 90.54% cases of goitre are caused by iodine deficiency. Goitre is associated with hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism.
