What is the difference between monocytes, neutrophils, eosinophils, lymphocytes, and basophils?

Monocytes:

1. These make up two to eight percent of WBCs.
2. They form macrophages which act on foreign antigens.

Lymphocytes:

1. These are made up 20% to 80% of the total WBCs.
2. It is circulating in the blood

Eosinophils:

1. These are acidic constituents of WBC.
2. They are effective against larger parasites.

Basophils:

1. These are smaller in size and basic in nature.
2. It is present at less than one percent in the WBC.

Neutrophils:

1. These are present at about fifty to seventy percent of total WBCs.
2. They are neutral in nature.

3	These are produced against myeloid cells in the bone marrow.	The lymphoid cell line in the bone marrow produces lymphocytes.	Eosinophils have formed from myeloid cells in the bone marrow.	Basophils are myeloid-lineage granular leukocytes.	Formed from myeloid cell lines in the bone marrow. myeloid
4	Monocytes have a nucleus that looks like a kidney bean.	Lymphocytes contain scant cytoplasm and spherical, highly stained nuclei.	The nucleus of eosinophils is bilobed and sausage-shaped.	The nucleus of basophils is bilobed and S-shaped.	Neutrophils have a nucleus with several lobes.
