4. An investigator performed cytofluorimetric (FACS) analyses of a mouse strain called C.B20 and a spontaneously arising point mutant that arose in the same strain called "C.B20 scid." Splenocytes from each strain were stained with anti-IgM (green) and anti-CD3 (red), then analyzed. The proportion of cells falling into each phenotypic category defined by these markers were then assessed.

The table below shows the results from all possible donor-recipient combinations of skin grafts between C.B20, C.B20 scid and another, genetically disparate strain called C57BL. Each kind of graft was done on ten mice.

• From the first table, what do you conclude about the scid mutation?
• From the second table, what do you conclude about the mechanism of graft rejection?
