The answer is the second one: kidney.

Explanation for each option:

  • Adrenal glands: These glands produce hormones such as adrenaline, cortisol, and aldosterone, but not erythropoietin.

  • Kidney: The kidneys are responsible for producing erythropoietin, a hormone that stimulates the production of red blood cells in the bone marrow.

  • Stomach: The stomach produces gastric juices and hormones like gastrin, but not erythropoietin.

  • Liver: The liver produces various proteins and hormones, including albumin and clotting factors, but it is not the primary source of erythropoietin.

  • Pancreas: The pancreas produces insulin and glucagon, which are involved in blood sugar regulation, but not erythropoietin.

In summary, the kidneys are the primary producers of the hormone erythropoietin.
