• C. Neck
• D. Liver

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: 'Liver.' Lymph nodes are small, bean-shaped structures that are part of the lymphatic system. They are commonly found in areas such as the groin, armpit, and neck, where they help filter and trap harmful substances. The liver, while an important organ in the body, does not typically contain lymph nodes. Therefore, it is not a common site for lymph nodes. Understanding the locations of lymph nodes in the body is important for identifying potential sources of infection or cancer when assessing patients.
