claimNaive lymphocytes are small B and T lymphocytes that have matured in the bone marrow and thymus but have not yet encountered an antigen.
claimThere are two major types of lymphocytes: B lymphocytes, which mature in the bone marrow, and T lymphocytes, which mature in the thymus.
claimAfter completing maturation, both B and T lymphocytes enter the bloodstream and migrate to the peripheral lymphoid organs.
