Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The stems cells that gives rise to myeloid stem cells and lymphoid stem cells are produced in:
A
Thymus gland
B
Compact bone
C
Red bone marrow
D
Spleen
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Hemopoiesis begins in the red bone marrow, with hemopoietic stem cells that differentiate into myeloid and lymphoid lineages. Myeloid stem cells give rise to most of the formed elements. Lymphoid stem cells give rise only to the various lymphocytes designated as B and T cells, and NK cells.

Detailed explanation-2: -Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) are multipotent primitive cells that can develop into all types of blood cells, including myeloid-lineage and lymphoid-lineage cells (1).

Detailed explanation-3: -All cells of the immune system are derived from the pluripotent hematopoietic stem cell found in the bone marrow. This pluripotential stem cell gives rise to lymphoid stem cells and myeloid stem cells.

Detailed explanation-4: -An immature cell that can develop into all types of blood cells, including white blood cells, red blood cells, and platelets. Hematopoietic stem cells are found in the peripheral blood and the bone marrow. Also called blood stem cell.
