Answer:

The correct option is : a. endoderm

Step-by-step explanation:

The primary layer of cells formed during the embryonic development is known as the germ layer. It is composed of three layers- endoderm , mesoderm and ectoderm.

The endoderm is the innermost germ layer and this layer develops into the interior lining of the endocrine glands, such as the thyroid gland.
