Question

Which one of these does not pertain to B-cells?

Options

• Have passed through the thymus

• Synthesize and liberate antibodies

• Have antibody-mediated immunity

• Have specific receptors

Answer 1

Have passed through the thymus

Explanation:

B-cells do not pass through the thymus; they mature in the bone marrow and are responsible for antibody production and antibody-mediated immunity. They also have specific receptors for antigens. In contrast, T-cells mature in the thymus. Therefore, passing through the thymus does not pertain to B-cells.
