No per Marieb. Basophils just release histamine and mediators of inflammation and they also contain helarin. Lymphocytes mount immune response by cell attack or via antibodies. The rest do phagoctytize.
Phagocytic cells, or phagocytes, use active transport to engulf bacteria, viruses, or other debri inside of a cell in order to neutralize them, some examples include; macrophages, neutrophils, and monocytes.
Microglia are small phagocytic cells that are especially obvious in damaged tissue in the central nervous system (CNS). They are the resident immune cells of the CNS and act as the primary form of active immune defense in the brain.
Phagocytic antigen-presenting cells belong to the group of immune cells known as leukocytes or white blood cells. These cells engulf and digest pathogens and then present pieces of them to other immune cells to activate an immune response. Common phagocytic antigen-presenting cells include macrophages, dendritic cells, and some types of white blood cells.
Some leukocytes, such as neutrophils, can have segmented nuclei that appear as multiple lobes. These segmented nuclei can give the appearance of multiple nuclei when observed under a microscope. This characteristic is known as polymorphism, and it is a normal feature of certain types of leukocytes.

That's true. A lymphocyte is one particular type of leukocyte. There are quite a few different types of leukocytes.
Some leukocytes, such as neutrophils, can have segmented nuclei that appear as multiple lobes. These segmented nuclei can give the appearance of multiple nuclei when observed under a microscope. This characteristic is known as polymorphism, and it is a normal feature of certain types of leukocytes.
They average 4,500 for each cubic millimeter of blood which is not true, because that is leukocytes.
To ingest invading microorganisms that have breached external defenses.

What is the chief function of leukocytes?
yes
Osteoclasts are phagocytic and are derived from monocytes and not from the same line as the other bone cells.
