The five different white blood cells are; neutrophils, basophils, eosinophils, monocytes and lymphocytes.
There are several different types because they can serve different purposes. For example, eosinophils are more likely to be involved with Allergies and parasitic attacks, whereas lymphocytes produce antibodies.

∙ 11y agoThere are 5 kinds of WBCs:
- NEUTROPHIL: Neutrophils defend against bacterial or fungal infection and other very small inflammatory processes that are usually first responders to microbial infection; their activity and death in large numbers forms pus.In adults 54-62% is neccessary.
- EOSINOPHIL:Eosinophils primarily deal with parasitic infections. Eosinophils are also the predominant inflammatory cells in allergic reactions. In adult 1-6% is neccesary.
- BASOPHILS:Basophils are chiefly responsible for allergic and antigens response by releasing the chemical histamine causing vasodilation. The nucleus is bi- or tri-lobed, but it is hard to see because of the number of coarse granules that hide it.In adult 0-1 % is neccessary.
- LYMPHOCYTES:Lymphocytes are much more common in the lymphatic system. Lymphocytes are distinguished by having a deeply staining nucleus that may be eccentric in location, and a relatively small amount of cytoplasm.In adults 28-33% is neccesary.
- MONOCYTES:Monocytes share the "vacuum cleaner" (phagocytosis) function of neutrophils, but are much longer lived as they have an additional role: they present pieces of pathogens to T cells so that the pathogens may be recognized again and killed, or so that an antibody response may be mounted. Monocytes eventually leave the bloodstream to become tissue macrophages, which remove dead cell debris as well as attacking microorganisms.In adults 2-10% is neccesary.

Name 3 types of white blood cells?
There are several types of white blood cells (leukocytes.) The 3 main groups are granulocytes, monocytes, and lymphocytes. There are 3 types of granulocytes; neutrophils, eosinophils, and basophils. There are 2 main types of lymphocytes; B cells and T cells. There are 4 types of T cells; cytotoxic T cells, helper T cells, suppressor T cells, and natural killer cells.
What white blood cells produce antibodies and function in the immune response?
There are 5 different types of white blood cells and all produce antibodies as a function of immune response. The five types are neutrophils, esoinophils, basophils, lymphocytes, and monocytes. They all respond to different threats to our body's health.
What or the 5 main components of blood?
red blood cells, white blood cells, platelets, plasma and OXYGEN!
Rbc ratio to wbc?
in 1cm3 of blood, there are 5 000 000 000 red blood cells and 8 000 000 white blood cells. so- 5000:8.
What are the components of white blood cells?
The components of white blood cells are as the following : 1- Neutrophils 2- Basophils 3- Eosinophil 4 - Lymphositis 5 - Monocytes
What caurse large white blood cells?
If you mean causes, then white blood cells are made in the bone marrow by hematopoietic stem cells. There are 5 types and they live around 7 days.

What is blood short answer?
Blood is a liquid connective tissue composed of cells and an extracellular matrix. The matrix being the plasma and the cells being erythrocytes (red blood cells), platelets, and 5 types of leukocyte (white blood cells).
Where does white blood cell produce in the body?
WHITE BLOOD CELLSThere are five main types of White Blood CellWhite blood cells use the blood as a means of transport from their origination in the bone marrow to their major sites of activity. The majority of the functions of the white blood cells occur when they leave the blood circulation to enter other body tissues. There are five types of white blood cellneutrophils 40 - 75 %eosinophils 5 %basophils 0.5 %lymphocytes 20 - 50 %monocytes 1 - 5 %The figures show the relative proportions of the different types of white blood cell. The reason for the range of figures shown is that the requirement for different types of white blood cell will vary from time to time.Neutrophils, eosinophils and basophils are collectively known as granulocytes due to prominent granules in their cytoplasm.Lymphocytes and monocytes are classed as white blood cells because they are a constituent of blood and ultimately originate from the bone marrow. However they are mainly found in structures such as the lymph nodes and the spleen

Four ways that white blood cells are different from red blood cells?
* Red blood cells do not have a nucleus (to save space and allow for higher amounts of haemoglobin), whereas white bloody cells do. * White blood cells protect the body from diseases (either by digesting the 'problem' or by emission of antibodies), whereas red blood cells are simply a means of transporting oxygen and other gases. * Red blood cells tend to have a life span of about 4 months, while white blood cells have a lower life span (which varies between the types of white blood cell). * Red blood cells are smaller than white bloody cells. * Red blood cells have a much higher density within the bloodstream (at 4,000,000-6,000,000 /mm3) than white blood cells (5000-7000 /mm3). ..... I hope this helps :] most of it is probably waffle... (i know i put 5)
What is the approximate ratio of red blood cells to white?
in 1cm3 of blood, there are 5 000 000 000 red blood cells and 8 000 000 white blood cells. so- 5000:8.
What or the 5 main components of blood?
red blood cells, white blood cells, platelets, plasma and OXYGEN!
Do you have more red blood cells or white blood cells in your body?
You have more red blood cells in your body than white because white blood cells only tend to produce when your body is under pressure by pressure I mean an illness . Plus for each tiny drop of blood we have there are over 5 million red blood cells in side :)
How many white blood cells in 1 drop of blood?
White blood cells are the largest of the blood cells but also the fewest. There are only 5000 to 10,000 white blood cells per microliter. There are several different types of white cells but all are related to immunity and fighting infection. On average there are 50 microliters in one drop of blood. There are 250,000 to 500,000 white blood cells per drop of blood.
Rbc ratio to wbc?
in 1cm3 of blood, there are 5 000 000 000 red blood cells and 8 000 000 white blood cells. so- 5000:8.
What are the non cellular portion of the blood?
Basic breakdown for use in transfusion is red cells, plasma, and platelets...however plasma is not a cellular component. Three cellular components may be red cells, white cells, and platelets. Maybe if you could elaborate on the question, it could be better answered.
