Solution

The correct option is A i and iii
RBCs or erythrocytes are disintegrated in the spleen and liver after a time period of 120 days, since WBCs are immunological cells their life span depends on their recruitment to fight infections, generally from 8-10 days. Neutrophils are phagocytic in nature and control infection by moving to the site of infection and engulfing and digesting the pathogen.
So, the correct answer is 'i and iii'
