Peyer's patches are actually lymphoid nodules and these are located in the ileum region of the small intestine. They function mainly for the immune system which is by monitoring any bacterial or pathogenic growth within that area. Therefore, how these are connected with a developed intestinal cancer is option A. Hope this answers your question.
