[Zope] Acquisition Question

When an object is acquired, particularly something like a DTMLMethod, does 
the acquired object have knowledge about where it was defined?  For 
example, suppose FolderA defines a method called 'foo'.  A method in 
FolderB references 'foo' but FolderB does not define foo.  The method might 
be acquired by a URL like this:

/FolderA/FolderB/someMethodWhichReferencesFoo.

Is there some way that the code in 'foo' would know that it was the foo 
which belonged to FolderA (as opposed to some other foo which might belong 
to some other object)?

Thanks.
