QUESTION 25 Lymph nodes are made of masses of lymphocytes surrounded by a capsule. The lymphocytes are organized into nodules (spherical masses of mostly B-lymphocytes), germinal centers (areas in the nodules where B-lymphocytes undergo cell division and develop into plasma cells), and (plasma cells organized on either side of lymph-filled spaces that produce antibodies).
