A polymorphous population of lymphocytes is usually a good sign; More of a reactive process.
A monomorphic population is suspicious for lymphoma. Hope this helps.
The cortex of the thymus is the region where lymphocytes are widely scattered. This is where T lymphocytes mature and differentiate with the help of specialized thymic epithelial cells. The cortex is essential for the development of a diverse and self-tolerant T cell population.

lymphocytes are generally elevated in viral infections and leukemias and lymphomas. Most bacterial infections cause a high white blood cell count but the particular population of cells that is relatively elevated is the granulocyte, not the lymphocyte. Whooping cough is a bacterial infection and thus we would expect elevated granulocytes, not lymphocytes. With that being said, whooping cough is a strange type of bacteria and actually DOES cause high lymphocytes. This correlation is so strong that the level of lymphocytes actually correlates to the severity of the disease.
A decrease in the population of T lymphocytes (T cells) would impair all aspects of an immune response. T cells play a critical role in coordinating and regulating the immune response, including activating other immune cells such as B cells and macrophages, and directly killing infected cells.
It means you can take a measure of the variance of the sample and expect that result to be consistent for the entire population, and the sample is a valid representation for/of the population and does not influence that measure of the population.
When an antigen stimulates B or T cells, these cells can produce identical lymphocytes through a process called clonal expansion. This results in a large population of identical cells that are all capable of recognizing and responding to the specific antigen that initiated the immune response.
Immunological memory is the ability of immune system to respond more rapidly and more effectively to pathogens that have been encountered previously and reflects the preexistence of a clonally expanded population of antigen specific lymphocytes.
Most scientists believe that the worlds population is between 4% and 10% gay or lesbian, and another 25% or so is bisexual.
they are the ones that are best adapted to survive in the environmrnt
Unusual because populations normally decrease with age
The prey population is typically larger than the predator population to ensure the survival of the species. A larger prey population helps to support the predator population by providing a consistent food source. Additionally, predators have natural controls such as competition, disease, and limited resources that help regulate their populations.
The percentage of the population that is gay is pretty consistent across the board. Countries typically have a gay population that is between 3% and 8%.Therefore, countries with larger populations will have larger numbers of gay people, such as China and India.
