No they are not. Granculocytes have granules e.g. neutrophil. Lymphocytes and monocytes do not.

What are two main categories of leukocytes?
The two categories are granulocytes and agranulocytes. Granulocytes have visible cytoplasmic granules. Examples of granulocytes include neutrophils, eosinophils, and basophils. Agranulocytes have no visible cytoplasmic granules. Eamples of agranulocytes include lymphocytes and monocytes.
What is the main structural difference between monocytes and lymphocytes?
Monocytes are granulocytes, meaning they have small granules in them. Lymphocytes do not. Histologically, you should be able to see some peripheral cytoplasm on a lymphocyte but not on a monocyte.
What are components of the human immune system?
Granulocytes, Monocytes, Lymphocytes, B cells, T cells and white blood cells
What is the two main groups of the white blood cells?
Granulocytes - which consist of neutrophils and eosinophils Agranulocytes - which consist of lymphocytes and monocytes
What is the full form of GRAN in haemogram test?
GRAN stands for Granulocytes, which is a part of the WBCs. There are 5 types of WBCs (Differential Count): Neutrophils, Lymphocytes, Monocytes, Eosinophils and Basophils. A collective count of Monocytes, Eosinophils and Basophils are together called Granulocytes. In the less advanced cell counters, ie. the 3 Part Differential Cell Counters, Neutrophils, Lymphocytes and Granulocytes are counted whereas in 5 Part Differential Cell counters, Neutrophils, Lymphocytes, Monocytes, Eosinophils and Basophils are counted separately and more accurately.
What is an example of agranulocytes?
there are two types of agranulocytes in the blood namely the monocytes and the lymphocytes.
Of the granulocytes phagocytosis is characteristic of the neutrophil and the?
Neutrophils are the only granulocytes that phagocytize bacteria. (Granuloctyes include neutrophils, eosinophils, and basophils.) Eosinophils do NOT phagocytize (eat); they kill parasidic worms by releasing enzymes and chemicals that create holes in the cells' membranes. Two types of agranulocytes are lymphocytes and monocytes. Monocytes function in phagocytosis. Also, monocytes turn into macrophages in tissues.
What is leukocytes also reffered to as?
Leucocytes are also referred to as white blood cells. . Which include granulocytes and agranulocytes, they include monocytes, basophils, eosinophils, neutrophils, lymphocytes. They are protective against infection.
Which are the two most important phagocytic cells?
- Neutrophils - Monocytes
What produces lymphocytes and monocytes and all other blood cells?
Bone marrow produces lymphocytes and monocytes and all other blood cells.
An example of an agranular leukocyte is a?
lymphocytes and monocytes
What is esinophils?
Eosinophils are one kind of white blood cells. they particularly belong to the granulocyte group. WBCs are grouped into two: granulocyte and agranulocytes. under granulocytes you have basophils, neutrophils and eosinophils. under agranulocytes you have lymphocytes and monocytes.
