The division of the ANS that develops from the same embryonic tissue as the adrenal medulla is the sympathetic division.

Explanation:

  • The autonomic nervous system (ANS) is divided into the sympathetic and parasympathetic divisions.
  • The adrenal medulla and the sympathetic division of the ANS both originate from neural crest cells during embryonic development.
  • The adrenal medulla functions as part of the sympathetic nervous system by releasing adrenaline (epinephrine) and noradrenaline (norepinephrine) into the bloodstream in response to stress.

Therefore, the correct answer is the sympathetic division.
