- These are colourless as haemoglobin is absent.
- These are nucleated but generally short lived.
- Types of WBCs :
Granulocytes - Neutrophils, eosinophils and basophils.
Agranulocytes - Lymphocytes and monocytes.
- Most abundant WBCs : Neutrophils (60-65%).
- WBCs least in number : Basophils (0.5-1 %).
- WBCs with phagocytic action : Neutrophils and monocytes (6-8%)
- Basophils are involved in inflammatory reactions and secrete histamine, serotonin, heparin, etc.
- Eosinophils (2-3%) are associated with allergic reactions and prevent infections.
- Lymphocytes (20-25%) are of 2 types - 'B' lymphocytes and 'T' lymphocytes, both of which are responsible for immune responses of the body.
