lymphoid tissue
Lymphoid tissue is a type of tissue in the body that is involved in the production of white blood cells (lymphocytes) and forms part of the body's immune system. It includes the lymph nodes, spleen, tonsils, adenoids, and Peyer's patches in the small intestine, among others. These tissues help to identify and destroy foreign substances like bacteria and viruses to protect the body from infections and diseases.
