Question

surgical removal of thymus of a new born shall result in failure in produce​

Answer 1

Answer:

The thymus is a specialized primary lymphoid organ of the immune system. Within the thymus, T cells mature. T cells are critical to the adaptive immune system, where the body adapts specifically to foreign invaders. The thymus is the largest and most active during the neonatal and pre-adolescent periods. Surgical removal of the thymus results in immunodeficiency because T- cells do not undergo maturation and this results in suppression of the immune system.
