C
Either A or B

None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -B lymphocytes, also called B cells, create a type of protein called an antibody. These antibodies bind to pathogens or to foreign substances, such as toxins, to neutralize them. For example, an antibody can bind to a virus, which prevents it from entering a normal cell and causing infection.

Detailed explanation-2: -(b) Febrile temperatures act on lymphocytes and high endothelial cells (HECs) to improve lymphocyte trafficking exclusively across high endothelial venules (HEVs) in lymph nodes.

Detailed explanation-3: -A fever can help your immune system fight infections in two ways. A higher temperature in the body speeds up how cells work, including the ones that fight illness. They can respond to invading germs faster. Also, higher body temperatures make it harder for bacteria and viruses to thrive in your body.
