Immature thymocytes begin their initial cycle of proliferation in:
A) The thymic cortex
B) Hassall's corpuscles
C) The germinal center
D) The lymph node medulla

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

T cells begin maturation in the thymic cortex and migrate to the medulla to undergo further maturation and differentiation. Hassall's corpuscles contain degenerating cells in the thymus. B cells proliferate in the germinal centers in the cortex of the lymph node, and the medulla of the lymph node contains a variety of cells involved in facilitating antigen-antibody interactions.
