Lymphocytes and Plasma Cells

Question

Lymphocytes and plasma cells
A) mediate the acquired immune response.
B) are found primarily in lymphoid tissue.
C) all function and behave the same way.
D) mediate the acquired immune response and are found primarily in lymphoid tissue.
E) mediate the acquired immune response, are found primarily in lymphoid tissue, and all function and behave the same way.

Accepted Answer

Lymphocytes and plasma cells are responsible for mediating the acquired immune response, and they are primarily found in lymphoid tissue. However, not all lymphocytes and plasma cells function and behave the same way, as different types of lymphocytes (such as B cells and T cells) have different roles in the immune response.
