Learning point: The locations where lymphocytes develop are the bone marrow and thymus in humans. B lymphocytes mature in the bone marrow, while T lymphocytes develop in the thymus from progenitors originating in the bone marrow. These are also known as central lymphoid organs.
Öğrenme noktası: Lenfositlerin geliştiği yerler; insanlarda bunlar kemik iliği ve timüstür. B lenfositleri kemik iliğinde gelişirken, T lenfositleri kemik iliğinden türemiş öncüllerden timus içinde gelişir. Merkezi lenfoid organlar olarak da adlandırılırlar.
