1 Lymphocytes destined
to become T cells
migrate to the thymus
and develop
immunocompetence
there. B cells develop
immunocompetence
in red bone marrow.
2 After leaving the thymus
or bone marrow as nave
immunocompetent cells,
lymphocytes seed the
lymph nodes, spleen, and
other lymphoid tissues
where the antigen
challenge occurs.
3 Antigen-activated

lymphocytes circulate
continuously in the
bloodstream and lymph
and throughout the
lymphoid organs of
the body.
