The leukocyte characterized by a purple multilobed nucleus (typically 3 to 5 lobes) and numerous fine granules in the cytoplasm is the neutrophil. Neutrophils are the most abundant type of white blood cells and play a crucial role in the immune response, particularly in fighting bacterial infections. Their granules contain enzymes and antimicrobial substances that help in the destruction of pathogens.

What are the two main groups of leukocytes?

White blood cells, or leukocytes, are classified into two main groups: granulocytes and nongranulocytes (also known as agranulocytes).The granulocytes, which include neutrophils, eosinophils, and basophils, have granules in their cell cytoplasm. Neutrophils, eosinophils, and basophils also have a multilobed nucleus. As a result they are also called polymorphonuclear leukocytes or "polys." The nuclei of neutrophils also appear to be segmented, so they may also be called segmented neutrophils or "segs."The nongranuloctye white blood cells, lymphocytesand monocytes, do not have granules and have nonlobular nuclei. They are sometimes referred to as mononuclear leukocytes.
