PATHOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -White blood cells are part of the body’s immune system. They help the body fight infection and other diseases. Types of white blood cells are granulocytes (neutrophils, eosinophils, and basophils), monocytes, and lymphocytes (T cells and B cells).

Detailed explanation-2: -White blood cells are the key players in your immune system. They are made in your bone marrow and are part of the lymphatic system. White blood cells move through blood and tissue throughout your body, looking for foreign invaders (microbes) such as bacteria, viruses, parasites and fungi.

Detailed explanation-3: -The main types of white blood cells are: Neutrophils and monocytes, which mainly fight against bacteria. Eosinophils and basophils are mainly involved in allergic responses. Lymphocytes, which can be T-cells or B-cells, produce antibodies against foreign organisms and are especially involved in fighting off viruses.

Detailed explanation-4: -Phagocytes are white blood cells. They are attracted to pathogens. They surround them in the blood, bind to them and engulf them. The phagocytes’ membrane surrounds the pathogen and the enzymes found inside the cell, then break down the pathogen in order to destroy it.
