Where is erythropoietin produced?

  1. Kidneys

  2. Liver

  3. Heart

  4. Lungs

The correct answer is: Kidneys

Erythropoietin is a hormone that stimulates the production of red blood cells, which are primarily made in the bone marrow. However, the hormone itself is produced in the kidneys. While the liver and heart also play roles in blood production, they do not produce erythropoietin. The lungs' main function is to oxygenate blood, and they do not produce erythropoietin either. Therefore, the correct answer is A.
