Solution

The correct option is B Cell- mediated immune response
Transplantation of tissues/ organs faces the risk of rejection as it is recognized by the immune cells as non-self. The cell mediated immune response is mainly involved in the rejection of the transplanted organs. The cell mediated immune response mainly involves T cells which releases cytokines in response to foreign objects.
So, the correct answer is option C.
