TestHub · Accepted Answer

White blood cells are granulocytes and agranulocytes. Granulocytes are neutrophils, eosinophils, and basophils, depending on their staining properties. Neutrophils are the main phagocytic cells of the body. Eosinophils are acidophils and are anti-allergic in function. Basophils are least in number but play an essential role as these release heparin, histamine and serotonin. Agranulocytes are lymphocytes and monocytes. Monocytes are phagocytic, while lymphocytes are immune cells and help in antibody formation.
