Further more‚ many cells age and die daily and their remains must be removed‚ this is where the white blood cell plays its role. According to this quotation‚ without white blood cells‚ also known as leukocytes‚ we would not be able to survive. White blood cells are our body ’s number one defense against infections. They

White blood cell (WBC)—A white blood cell is one of the three main types of blood cells. They are produced in the bone marrow and released into the blood. White blood cells are responsible for fighting infection. There are several kinds of white blood cells‚ including monocytes‚ lymphocytes‚ neutrophils‚ eosinophils‚ and basophils. White blood cells‚ or leukocytes (also spelled "leucocytes"; from the Greek word leuko- meaning "white")‚ are cells of the immune system involved in defending the body

treatment of Thalassemia. WHAT IS THALASSEMIA? Thalassemia is genetic disorders that involve the decreased and defective production of hemoglobin‚ a molecule found inside all red blood cells (RBCs) that transports oxygen throughout the body (Miller‚ Thalassemias‚ 2008). As (Hashemi‚ 2011) says "Thalassemia is blood disorders ". As (Clinaero‚ n.d.) says" There are mild and severe forms of the disorder as well. Severe Thalassemia is often called Cooley’s anemia".

muscle movement and certain cell reactions are reliant on energy the transport of oxygen to the cells of tissues and organs by blood vessels is vital for respiration to occur. Oxygen is carried in red blood cells by the pigment haemoglobin‚ a globular protein consisting of four polypeptide chains. Both of these components of blood are structured specifically to carry out their functions of oxygen transport‚ hence ensuring efficient respiration. Erythrocytes‚ or red blood cells‚ possess a unique structure
