This is a good question without a satisfactory answer. Some speculate that multi-lobed nuclei improve cellular migration through tissues. Neutrophils have a short lifespan after release from the bone marrow; perhaps multi-lobed nuclei act as a prelude to programmed cell death. An intriguing but apparently untested possibility is that multi-lobed nuclei facilitate regulated release of DNA and other nuclear contents. For neutrophils these released substances are called neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs). Eosinophils also release extracellular traps. For a review of NETs see J. Cell Biol. 2012, 198:773-83.

What are white blood cells with one large nucleus called?
Monocytes are the largest unicuclear white blood cells.
What are the most numerous white blood cells?
White Blood Cells (WBCs) are of main two types: Granulated and Agranulated. There are three types of granulated WBC: Eosinophils, Basophils and Neutrophils.. While agranulated WBC are of two types: Lymphocytes and Monocytes..The most numerous WBc are Neutrophils, which are of 62% of total number of WBCs in the body... Neutrophils are neutral in nature and having 3-7 lobed nucleus..
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 is the difference between granular and agranular white blood cells?
Granular Leukocytes account for about 50-70% of all WBCs, and include neutrophils, eosinophils, and basophils. Agranular Leukocytes account for 25-35% of all WBCs. They include lymphocytes and monocytes. Apart from the difference in function regarding each individual type of white blood cell, the primary difference between granular and agranular leukocytes is that the former has visible granules, whereas the later does on have any noticeable granules.
What are four types of white blood cells?
White blood cells include; neutrophils, basophils, eosinophils, monocytes and lymphocytes.
What are three types of granulocytic white blood cells?
neutrophils, basophils, eosinophils.
Polymorphonuclear leukocyte is another name for what with a segmented nucleus?
Granulocyte(Neutrophils,Eosinophils,Basophils)
How many lobes do eosinophils usually have in its nucleus?
Eosinophils have 2 lobes separated by a thin strand of chromatin whereas neutrophils have between 3 and 5 lobes. By knowing this it is easy to tell the difference (in a light microscope) between eosinophils and neutrophils in a blood smear.
What are the three types of granular leukocytes?
The three Granular leukocytes are Neutrophils, Basophils, and Eosinophils.
How are neutrophils specalized?
They have many-lobed nucleus, and a granular cytoplasm due to the large numbers of lysosomes present.

Which cell is not the same type as the others?
Erythrocytes are not the same type of cell a neutrophils, lymphocytes, eosinophils, and monocytes. In the defense response neutrophils, lymphocytes, eosinophils, and monocytes are.
Name the granular WBC's?
neutrophils, eosinophils and basophils
What group constist of granulocytes?
Neutrophils, Eosinophils and Basophils
Which of the following formed elements are phagocytic?
