Expert Solution
Step 1

Secondary lymphoid organs capture antigens and provide sites where lymphocytes become activated by interaction with antigens. Activate lymphocytes undergo clonal proliferation and differentiation into effector cells. The types of secondary lymphoid tissue are;

  • lymph nodes,
  • spleen, the loose clusters of follicles,
  • Peyer's patches of the intestine,
  • Cutaneous-associated lymphoid tissue.

Lymph nodes trap antigens, spleen traps blood-borne antigens, intestinal-associated lymphoid tissues interact with antigens that enter the body from the gastrointestinal tract and cutaneous associated lymphoid tissue protects epithelial tissues.
