Which two organs are considered the primary lymphoid organs in which immunocompetent
cells originate and mature?
A. Thyroid and Peyer's patches
B. Thymus and bone marrow
C. Spleen and mucosal-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT)

T cells travel from the bone marrow to the thymus for maturation. What is the correct order
of the maturation sequence for T cells in the thymus?
A. Bone marrow to the cortex; after thymic education, released back to peripheral circulation
B. Maturation and selection occur in the cortex; migration to the medulla; release of mature T
cells to secondary lymphoid organs

activated by antigen - CORRECT ANSWER- ✔✔Maturation and selection occur in the
cortex; migration to the medulla; release of mature T cells to secondary lymphoid organs
