Monocytes ARE a a type of leukocyte , part of the human body's immune system,
monocytes have 2 funtions:
1. to replenish macrophages and dendrites to normal state
2. monocytes can quickly (takes 8-12 hours and yes its not quickly....) go to the site of the infection and divide the tissue AND differentiate macrophages and dendritic cells to elicit an immune response...

Which are the two most important phagocytic cells?
The two most important phagocytic cells are neutrophils and macrophages. Neutrophils are the most abundant type of white blood cell and are among the first responders to infection, while macrophages are larger cells that play a key role in engulfing and digesting pathogens.
Which white blood cell have multilobed nuclei?
Neutrophils have multilobed nuclei and are a type of white blood cell that plays a key role in the immune system by protecting the body against infections.
What is the largest white blood cell and phagocytic?
Monocytes become Macrophages which are phagocytes, also Neutrophils are phagocitic...
What are the seven types of leukocytes?
The seven types of leukocytes are: neutrophils, eosinophils, basophils, monocytes, macrophages, dendritic cells, and lymphocytes. Neutrophils, basophils, esinophils, monocytes and lymphocytes are the five most commonly thought of.
List the different types of white blood cells and describe their role in the immune system?
The main types of white blood cells are neutrophils, lymphocytes, monocytes, eosinophils, and basophils. Neutrophils are the most abundant and are involved in fighting bacterial infections. Lymphocytes include B cells, which produce antibodies, and T cells, which help coordinate immune responses. Monocytes develop into macrophages and help engulf and destroy pathogens. Eosinophils and basophils are involved in allergic reactions and parasitic infections.
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.
What actively phagocytic leukocytes?
To ingest invading microorganisms that have breached external defenses.
Which are the two most important phagocytic cells?
The two most important phagocytic cells are neutrophils and macrophages. Neutrophils are the most abundant type of white blood cell and are among the first responders to infection, while macrophages are larger cells that play a key role in engulfing and digesting pathogens.
Which WBC take part in diapedesis?
Neutrophils, monocytes and lymphocytes
Which leukocytes are derived from the myeloid line?
Neutrophils, basophils, eosinophils, and monocytes
Which white blood cell have multilobed nuclei?
Neutrophils have multilobed nuclei and are a type of white blood cell that plays a key role in the immune system by protecting the body against infections.
Of the granulocytes phagocytosis is characteristic of the neutrophil and the?
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.
Which are there more of neutrophils eosinophils basophils lymphocytes or monocytes?
I know neutrophils are most numerous, then eosinophils, and basophils are least numerous. I don't know where on the continuum monocytes and lymphocytes lie.
What are all the defenses of the immune system?
* Lymphocytes * Neutrophils * Basophils * Eosinophils * Monocytes
Differential count of monocytes typically increases in response to bacterial infections?
it is supposed to be neutrophils..
What is the largest white blood cell and phagocytic?
Monocytes become Macrophages which are phagocytes, also Neutrophils are phagocitic...
Which of the following formed elements are phagocytic?
Neutrophils, monocytes, and macrophages are phagocytic formed elements in the blood. They play a crucial role in engulfing and destroying pathogens and foreign particles in the body to help maintain immunity and combat infections.
