leukocytes are the largest white blood cells.
A low white blood cell count is of concern and your vet should be looking into it further. A high white blood cell means that your horse is fighting infection.
The white blood cells that are effective in defending the body against parasitic infection are called Eosinophils. These cells can be found wherever an allergic reaction is taking place.

White blood cells (WBC's), or leukocytes (also spelled "leucocytes"), are cells of the immune system defending the body against both infectious disease and foreign materials. Five[1] different and diverse types of leukocytes exist, but they are all produced and derived from a multipotent cell in the bone marrow known as a hematopoietic stem cell. Leukocytes are found throughout the body, including the blood and lymphatic system.[2] The number of leukocytes in the blood is often an indicator of disease. There are normally between 4×109 and 11×109 white blood cells in a litre of blood, making up approximately 1% of blood in a healthy adult.[3] In conditions such as leukemia, the number of leukocytes is higher than normal, and in leukopenia, this number is much lower. The physical properties of leukocytes, such as volume, conductivity, and granularity, may change due to activation, the presence of immature cells, or the presence of malignant leukocytes in leukemia. Leukocyte A white blood cell protects the body against infection and fight infection when it occurs. They are bigger than red blood cells.leukocyte[lo̅o̅′kəsīt]Etymology: Gk, leukos + kytos, cellone of the formed elements of the circulating blood system that comprise the cells of immunity and inflammation. Five types of leukocytes are classified by the presence or absence of granules in the cytoplasm of the cell. The agranulocytes are lymphocytesand monocytes. The granulocytes are neutrophils, basophils, and eosinophils. White cells are able to squeeze through intracellular spaces by diapedesis and migrate by ameboid movements. Leukocytes measure 8 to 20 μm in diameter. Normal blood values vary from 5000 to 10,000 leukocytes per cubic millimeter. Leukocytes function as phagocytes of bacteria, fungi, and viruses; detoxifiers of toxic proteins that may result from allergic reactions and cellular injury; and immune system cells. Also spelled leucocyte. Also called white blood cell, white corpuscle. Compare erythrocyte, platelets.

A red blood cell is not a cell, its a blob of cytoplasm containing hemoglobin. They live about 90 days. Sperm cells are "real" cells but contain only half the genetic information of "normal" cells. They only live about a week.
A white blood cell is the biggest then the anthrax bacterium then the influenza virus.Hope it helps! :)
The biggest difference is that a red blood cell has no nucleus where as a white blood cell does. A red blood cell has no nucleus because it needs all the space inside the cell for the haemoglobin which is stored inside it and is the oxygen attrcting chemical. White blood cells can have either a bean shaped nucleus which would make it a lymphocyte or a double lobed nucleus which would make it a phagocyte. Another difference is that white blood cells are bigger than red blood cells.
The white blood cell has nucleus that red blood cell does not
the nerve cell is the white cell and it is white but it doesnt care as much blood as the red blood cell does that's the difference. Also, the nerve cell is the white cell and it is white but the red blood carries blood. Wait, I think the nerve cell is the white cell is white. White Cell=Nerve Cell*white. Cell=Nerve/White =;)
White blood cell is a cell in our blood that remove germs in the bloodstream.
Yes, a leukocyte is a white blood cell
A leukocyte is a white blood cell, and is a cell that travels in the blood and implements the body's immune response.
Yes in sickl cell disease the white blood cell is
(phagocyte) - a white blood cell
There is a saying that fits your question: "Form follows function". These cells are the way that they are because the shapes fit the way they work. Why are hammers different than screw drivers?
yes.And the white blood cell will count very high due to the infection of apendicsus.
Yes, 4.3 is a low white blood cell count.
