The correct option is A Parathyroid gland
The parathyroid glands are four tiny glands embedded in the thyroid gland, located in the neck, that control the body's calcium levels. Each gland is about the size of a grain of rice. The parathyroids produce a hormone, called as parathyroid hormone (PTH) or parathormone which regulates the blood calcium level and phosphate level. Its major target cell is in kidney and bone
