Answer to Question 1

Answer: b

Answer to Question 2

Answer: Precursor T cells leave the bone marrow (where they develop from the committed lymphoid progenitor cell) and enter the thymus through arterioles in the cortex. The thymus is the maturation compartment for T-lymphocytes. As they travel through the cortex and medulla, the T-lymphocytes interact with epithelial cells and dendritic cells, which provide signals to ensure that T cells recognize foreign antigen, not self-antigen. In addition, the T cells undergo substantial proliferation.

It is believed that the Incas used anesthesia. Evidence supports the theory that shamans chewed cocoa leaves and drilled holes into the heads of patients (letting evil spirits escape), spitting into the wounds they made.
