Answer: Thymus gland
Explanation:
The thymus gland is an endocrine gland that is located in the upper part of the human chest. It is responsible for producing white blood cells. This gland is located near the airway. The enlargement of the thymus gland can suppress the nearby structures. This may result in shortness of breath, and cough along with sputum. The thymus gland produces several endocrine hormones like thymopoietin and thymulin.
The given condition is indicative of the mass of the thymus gland.
Since Mary has a Type A blood, she is either AA or AO while John is either BB or BO. Since both John's parents are Type AB, he can only have the either A or B as an allele and not O so he is BB. Since John can only give the B allele, all of his children must have the B allele in their blood types. So the adopted one is the child with type A blood.
