What are the characteristic features of granular phagocytes?
Granular phagocytes, primarily neutrophils and eosinophils, are characterized by the presence of granules in their cytoplasm, which contain enzymes and antimicrobial substances.

Eosinophils are involved in combating parasitic infections and modulating allergic responses. Both types of granular phagocytes are essential for inflammation and the body's defense against infections.
