The correct answer is: A) activates B cells.
Explanation:
The thymus is a lymphatic organ that is located in the anterior superior mediastinum (a compartment in the thoracic cavity), in front of the heart, with the function to mature T cells (one of the types of lymphocytes, white blood cells very important for the functioning of the immune system).
The thymus is more active and bigger during childhood, when puberty hits it involutes and its functional tissue is replaced with adipose tissue (fat).
