A. Interleukin is a type of cytokine that plays a role in the immune system, but it is not another name for immunoglobulin.
B. Antibodies are also known as immunoglobulins. They are proteins produced by B cells that recognize and bind to specific antigens to help neutralize or destroy pathogens.
C. Interferon is another type of protein that plays a role in the immune response, particularly in inhibiting viral replication, but it is not the same as immunoglobulin.

C. Peyer's patches are clusters of lymphoid tissue found in the small intestine that monitor and respond to pathogens in the digestive tract.
D. Tonsils are lymphoid tissues located in the throat, playing a role in immune defense, but they are not part of the reticuloendothelial system.
