i think is D.
The secondary lymphoid organs include highly organized lymphoid organs such as lymph nodes and the spleen, as well as less organized accumulations of lymphoid organs scattered strategically throughout the body. These latter include the tonsils, the appendix, the Peyer's patches in the lining of the small intestines (part of the gut-associated lymphoid tissue or GALT), lymphoid tissue beneath the mucous membranes of the bronchi (bronchial-associated lymphoid tissue or BALT), and aggregates of lymphatic tissue throughout the mucous membranes (mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue or MALT) and beneath the skin (skin-associated lymphoid tissue or SALT).
