i dont know yet

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Epidermal growth factor (EGF) is produced by the glands of the duodenum. It plays important roles in cell - growth, proliferation, and differentiation. The other options are incorrect as they are not the sites of EGF production. The pituitary gland is involved in hormone production related to growth, metabolism etc. but not EGF. The stratum basale is a layer of the epidermis involved in cell division of skin cells. The dermis is a layer of skin with connective tissue, blood vessels etc. but not a site for EGF production.

Answer:

Glands of the duodenum
