Question 5 • Biology - SC3209 IC

What is the role of Langerhans cells?

Answer
A
prevent pathogens from entering the body using antibacterial agents
B
destroy pathogens that enter the body using white blood cells
C
identify pathogens that enter the body and carry them to lymph nodes for destruction

Explanation

Langerhans cells are immune cells in the skin that capture and identify invading pathogens. They then carry information about those pathogens to nearby lymph nodes, where an immune response can be organized. This matches the choice that says they identify pathogens and carry them to lymph nodes for destruction.
