Ans - Innate lymphocytes are named so because there function is independent of the antigen binding. (C)
* They react to tissue perturbations independent of antigen stimulation, and polarization of their effector functions is a feature that largely arises during their development, rather than at the time of immunologic challenge , unlike adaptive T and B lymphocytes.
* Innate Lymphoid Cells (ILCs) lack antigen-specific receptors and do not undergo genomic receptor rearrangements or clonal selection.
* ILCs produce cytokines within hours of activation by tissue damage , in contrast to the days required for naive adaptive lymphocytes .
* Found in peripheral regions of the body such as skin and mucous membranes.
