neutrophylls‚ lymphocytes‚ monocytes‚ esophylls and basophylls. They all have different functions and properties in the immune system. The neutrophils are the most common and are a bacterial response. Therefore if the patient has a high amount of neutrophils you know that the patient is fighting bacteria. They have 3 to 5 lobes in their nucleus with granules within the cytoplasm. The way they kill bacteria is by engulfing the bacteria cell and dissolving the contents. Lymphocytes attack a viral

and monocytes. 16. The lymphoid cell line produces lymphocytes. 17. Eosinophilic myelocytes differentiate into eosinophils. 18. Basophilic myelocytes differentiate into basophils. 19. Neutrophilic myelocytes develop into nutrophils. 20. Monocytes are derived from granulocyte stem cells. 21. Lymphocytes are derived from lymphoid stem cell. 22. The two types of lymphocytes that develop are B- and T- lymphocytes. Hemoglobin Breakdown After viewing the animation

viruses. Lymph nodes also filter cellular waste‚ dead cells‚ and cancerous cells. The thymus gland is the main organ of the lymphatic system. Its primary function is to promote the development of specific cells of the immune system called T-lymphocytes. T-lymphocytes are responsible for cell mediated immunity‚ which is an immune response that involves the activation of certain immune cells to fight infection. In addition to immune function‚ the thymus also produces hormones that promote growth and maturation

absolute number of lymphocytes as 8000 per mm3 and the total number of white blood cells as 12‚000 per mm3. Calculate the percentage of lymphocytes in this sample of white blood cells. Is this a normal or abnormal percentage? Explain your answer. To get the percentage of lymphocytes in White Blood Cells‚ you divide 8000 by 12000 and multiply by 100. This will give you 66.67% of lymphocytes in White Blood Cells. This is an abnormal percentage‚ because normal values of lymphocytes in blood‚ is 20%-40%

The effect of bacterial infection would cause not a decrease in hematocrit (420Allen) 2. Leukocytes are produced or stored in many locations in the body including: the thymus‚ spleen‚ and bone marrow. The two kinds of lymphocytes are B lymphocytes and T lymphocytes. Lymphocytes start out in the bone marrow and either stay there to mature into B cells‚ or they leave for the thymus gland‚ where they mature into T cells. Other formed elements‚ such as blood is a mixture of plasma and other substances

Lymphocytes develop mostly in in red bone marrow. B lymphocytes develop in red bone marrow‚ T lymphocytes develop in red bone marrow and then they mature in the thymus. Other formed elements are also developed in red bone marrow. Erythropoiesis is development of red blood cells‚ Erythropoiesis is speeded
