Question

Follicular dendritic cells reside primarily in which of the following tissue/organ?

Question 9 options:

A)

the bone marrow

B)

the thymus

C)

primary lymphoid tissues

D)

secondary lymphoid tissues

E)

none of these

Answer 1

The correct answer will be option D-secondary lymphoid tissues.

Step-by-step explanation:

Follicular dendritic cells or FDCs are non-migratory dendrite cells found in the follicles of B cell areas of any secondary lymphoid organs and belong to the stromal cells of these lymphoid organs.

They help in providing immunity by shaping the responses of B in the chronic inflammatory response and auto-immune disease. These cell help in the selection of memory B cells by presenting antigens to potential memory cells to which only B cell with B cell receptors can bind.

Thus, option D-secondary lymphoid tissues is the correct answer.
