Detailed explanation-1: -B-cell development begins in the bone marrow and is completed in peripheral lymphoid tissues, such as the spleen. Development in the bone marrow progresses sequentially through pro-B, pre-B, and immature B cell stages and expression of surface IgM, mature B-cell receptor (BCR).
Detailed explanation-2: -B cells create antibodies. 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-3: -The greater part of lymphocyte development in mammals occurs in the specialized environments of the central lymphoid organs-the bone marrow (and the liver in the fetus) for B cells and the thymus for T cells.
