Question

The lobed organ located near the heart and beneath the breast bone in humans is:

• A. Liver
• B. Spleen
• C. Thymus
• D. Lungs

Hint:

The thymus, located in the mediastinum beneath the sternum, is crucial for immune function and T-cell maturation.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

The thymus is a lobed organ located near the heart and beneath the breastbone (sternum) in the mediastinum. It plays a key role in the immune system by aiding T-cell development. The liver and spleen are in the abdomen, and the lungs, while near the heart, are not a single lobed organ beneath the breastbone.
