Question

what is the name for the inner portion of the adrenal gland that produces epinephrine? (1 point)
○ cortex
○ medulla
○ anterior lobe
○ posterior lobe

Explanation:

To solve this, we recall the structure of the adrenal gland. The adrenal gland has two main parts: the outer cortex and the inner medulla. The medulla is responsible for producing epinephrine (adrenaline). The cortex produces other hormones, and the anterior/posterior lobes are related to the pituitary gland, not the adrenal gland's inner part. So the correct option is medulla.

Answer:

B. medulla
