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 cells are classified as granulocytes?
neutrophils, eosinophils, and basophilsneutrophils, eosinophils, and basophilsneutrophils, eosinophils, and basophilsWhite blood cells or leukocytes have granulocytes as well as other types of white cells.
What are the adaptations of a neutrophil cell?
lobed nucleus to allow for greater flexibility during phagocytosis and movement in vessels aswell as many lysosomes present (making the cytoplasm look grainy) to aid the digestion of pathogens during phagocytosis.
What is the difference between myeloblast erythroblast monoblast and lymphoblast?
mono blast is the precursor form of monocyte found in bone marrow.myeloblast is the precursor form of granulocytes like eosinophil, neutrophil and basophil.
Thread-like pseudopods that can perform phagocytosis are generally characteristic of which group?
Radiolarians and Forams
A large white blood cell that can destroy substances such as cell debris dust pollen and pathogens by the process of phagocytosis?
All of them!
Of the granulocytes phagocytosis is characterized of the neutrophil and the blank?
eosinophil
Do granulocytes perform phagocytosis?
Simply, yes.
Are lymphocytes and monocytes granulocytes?
No they are not. Granculocytes have granules e.g. neutrophil. Lymphocytes and monocytes do not.
What are granucytes?
Granucytes are a type white blood cells which has granules in it cytoplasm. They are also called polymorphonuclear leukocytes. there are 3 types of granucytes these are: Neutrophil granulocytes Eosinophil granulocytes Basophil granulocytes
What is granulocyte with the smallest granules?
Neutrophil granulocytes or just Neutrophil is a white blood cell type of mammals. It has the smallest granule of all the granulocyte.
What does Absolute Neutrophils mean?
Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) is a measure of the number of neutrophil granulocytes that are present in the blood. Neutrophils are a type of white blood cell that fight infection.

Who discovered the neutrophil?
Elie Metchnikoff discovered neutrophils (and the other granulocytes, and macrophages) when he inserted rose thorns into starfish larvae and noticed the accumulation of these cells at the sight of injury.
What is the difference between granulocytes and agranulocytes?
there are two main type of white blood cell,granulocyte and agranulocyte.granulocyte are white blood cell that has granule in their cytoplasm and it is visible when staining....the most common granulocyte are neutrophil,which are one of the phagocyte.the granule aid in phagocytosis ..there are three main type of granules in the neutrophil.granule contain lysozyme. agranulocyte is white blood cell which do not have granule in their cytoplasm.exm are the lymphocyte,macrophage. ^^
