    1. Parathyroid and Adrenal
    2. Pancreas and Parathyroid

Correct Option: A

Parathyroid and adrenal are the endocrine glands. Adrenal glands are the pairs of endocrine glands situated immediately above the kidneys. Hence they are also known as suprarenal glands. Parathyroid glands are the two pairs of endocrine glands situated behind or embedded within the thyroid gland in higher vertebrates. They produce parathyroid hormone, which controls the amount of calcium in the blood.
