Brief Explanations

The thymus grows until puberty and then undergoes involution (shrinks), not remaining constant in size. T - cell maturation in the thymus involves destruction of self - reactive T cells. The thymus has two lobes. And T cells in the thymus are in a maturation stage and do not participate in the immune response yet.

Answer:

It continues to grow until puberty, and then its size remains constant.
