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

Explanation

Langerhans cells are immune cells in the skin that capture and identify invading pathogens. They then travel to nearby lymph nodes and present information about those pathogens to other immune cells, helping trigger their destruction. Therefore, the correct choice is identify pathogens that enter the body and carry them to lymph nodes for destruction.
