Adrenal Medulla
There are two parts to the adrenal gland, the outer portion called the Adrenal Cortex, and the inner portion called the Adrenal Medulla.
It is a gland that secretes adrenaline to increase body activity.
Adrenal Glands
Adrenal Medulla is not the correct answer. The actual target of ACTH is the Adrenal Cortex, hence the name Adrenocorticotropic Hormone. Please feel free to test my answer, but I believe that is more specific than suggesting the Medulla itself.

Adrenal Glands
Adrenal cortex release them.Adrenaline and nor-Adrenaline released by Adreanal medulla.
The adrenal gland or suprarenal gland sits above each kidney. They are comprised of two parts, the cortex and the medulla. The cortex is responsible for the production of corticosteroid hormones and the medulla is responsible for the production of the catecholamines, adrenaline and noradrenaline.
The adrenal medulla is the inner portion of the adrenal gland.

TO PRODUCE HORMONESEach adrenal gland has two distinct structures, the outeradrenal cortex and the inner medulla, both of which produce hormones. The cortex mainly producescortisol, aldosterone andandrogens, while the medulla chiefly producesepinephrine and norepinephrine.In contrast to the direct innervation of the medulla, the cortex is regulated by neuroendocrine hormones secreted from the pituitary gland which are under the control of the hypothalamus, as well as by the renin-angiotensin system.
The Adrenal gland (Specifically the adrenal cortex.)
The central portion of the adrenal gland is the adrenal medulla and it is the site of synthesis and release of the epinephrine (adrenaline) and norepinephrine (noradrenaline) hormones. It's under the control of the sympathetic nervous system and basically functions like a sympathetic ganglion.
The medical term is "cortical," which means relating to or involving the cortex of the adrenal gland.
