Answer: C. They produce antibodies against foreign particles.

Explanation: Lymphocytes. Lymphocytes produce antibodies against foreign particles, such as microorganisms, drugs, cancerous cells, and cells from transplanted organs. Lymphocytes are further classified as T-lymphocytes (or T-cells) and B-lymphocytes or (B-cells). B-cells produce antibodies and T-cells participate in cell-mediated immune response against bacterial and viral infections.

Answer:

The correct answer is option C. Lymphocytes produce antibodies against foreign cells/particles found in the body.

Step-by-step explanation:

Lymphocytes are the type of white blood cells found in our body. They help the body to fight against different type of cells/bodies found in our bodies which put us in harms way. Each type of white blood cell helps to fight against diseases and infections.

Lymphocytes are constantly being produced by our own bone marrow. Some of the lymphocytes will stay in the bone marrow but some will move onto our lymphatic system which includes spleen, tonsils, and lymph nodes.
