The statement that is accurate in comparing the social structures of Egypt and Mesopotamia is:

**Priests and priestesses were closer to the pharaoh in ancient Egypt.**

In ancient Egypt, the social hierarchy placed priests and priestesses in a significant position, often close to the pharaoh, as they were responsible for religious practices and maintaining the favor of the gods. In contrast, while Mesopotamia also had a priestly class, they did not hold as central a position in the governance as in Egypt where the pharaoh was considered a divine ruler.
