Which statement provides the best explanation of the need for self-tolerance screening of lymphocytes?
Lymphocytes which would attack the body's own tissues are never generated. The process which generates the vast array of diverse antigen receptors is a random process that could produce receptors which will bind to the body's own tissues. The process which generates the vast array of diverse antigen receptors is a highly-controlled process, so the generation of receptors which can bind to the body's own tissues is a rare occurrence due to a genetic mutation. Self-tolerance involves "self" lymphocytes which bind to and form a protective layer over all body tissues. It is necessary to have some lymphocytes with receptors that are self-tolerant to respond to intracellular infections by viruses.
