Answer 1

Both Statement I and Statement II are correct.

Explanation:

The thymus and bone marrow are both essential for the growth and maturation of T cells. As the main lymphoid organ, bone marrow produces all blood cells, including lymphocytes. A setting for T-cell maturation is provided by the thymus. As a result, both organs are essential to the immune system’s healthy operation, especially T-cell-mediated immunity.
