MICROANATOMY

Detailed explanation-1: -Eosinophils are a type of white blood cell that help ward off bacteria, viruses, parasites, and other possible causes of infection. Eosinophil levels may rise when a person has an allergy, an infection, or leukemia. Eosinophils are a vital part of the immune system.

Detailed explanation-2: -Eosinophils are usually found in connective tissues of the stomach and intestines. These are also phagocytic and primarily target antigen-antibody complexes formed when antibodies bind to antigens to signal that they should be destroyed. Eosinophils are most active during parasitic infections and allergic reactions.

Detailed explanation-3: -The type of leukocytes that would increase rapidly during allergy attacks and infections of parasitic worms are: Eosinophils. The process whereby the binding of antibodies to antigens causes RBCs to clump is called: Agglutination.

Detailed explanation-4: -The eosinophils and monocytes were the first to register their increase around the worm as well as Mf and at a later stage they start sticking to the body surface so that they can damage that particular part of the parasite by their secretions and could clear it off in due course of time.
