The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the assertion and reason about lymphocytes, we can break it down into the following steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Assertion**: - The assertion states that "Lymphocytes develop in lymphoid tissue and are involved in cell-mediated and humoral immunity." - **Analysis**: This is true because lymphocytes, which include B-cells and T-cells, play crucial roles in both types of immunity. B-cells are responsible for humoral immunity (producing antibodies), while T-cells are involved in cell-mediated immunity (attacking infected cells). 2. **Understanding the Reason**: - The reason states that "Lymphocytes are produced in primary lymphoid tissue (thymus, embryonic liver, and adult bone marrow) and migrate to secondary lymphoid tissue (spleen and lymph nodes)." - **Analysis**: This statement is also true. Lymphocytes are indeed produced in primary lymphoid organs (thymus for T-cells and bone marrow for B-cells) and migrate to secondary lymphoid organs (spleen and lymph nodes) where they can encounter antigens. 3. **Evaluating the Relationship**: - Now we need to determine if the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion. - The assertion describes the role of lymphocytes in immunity, while the reason describes where they are produced and how they migrate. The reason provides foundational knowledge about the origin and movement of lymphocytes, which supports the assertion regarding their function in immunity. 4. **Conclusion**: - Both the assertion and reason are true, and the reason correctly explains the assertion. - Therefore, the correct answer is: **Both assertion and reason are true, and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.** ### Final Answer: The correct option is **1**: Both assertion and reason are true, and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.

[A] : Macrophage is a large amoeboid cell that can engulf, ingest and destroy bacteria, damaged cells and worn-out red blood cells. This process is called phagocytosis and is an important part of the body s defence against disease. [R]: Macrophages are found free (wandering) in the tissues, in connective tissue (as histiocytes), in the lining of the blood sinusoids of the liver (as Kupffer cells), and in lymphoid tissue. They make up the reticulo-endothelial system.
