what are white cells?
445477
These are cells in our blood that protect us from germs. They are like microscopic soldiers who kill the germs whenever a germ enters your body. \n\nWhite blood cells have a number of roles in the immune system, including antibody production, attacking and destroying cancer cells, and producing substances that kill cancer cells. They are also called lymphocytes.

Erythrocytes are red blood cells. They are made in bone marrow.

It depends on the type of cell.  Animals are eukaryotic so by definition all their cells are eukaryotic although there are rare exceptions.  Your q needs to be more specific, there are lots of different types of animal cells, muscle cells, nerve cells, white blood cells just to name a few.  All these cells work together though in groups called tissues to support the wellbeing of the organism as a whole.  \nHope this helps

High WBC count means your body is fighting an infection.  Those are your immune cells and they are in high numbers because you are sick and they are trying to fight it off.

A low white blood cell count can be attributed to many factors:\n\nInfections, such as viral infections and HIV\n\nAutoimmune disorders, such as lupus\n\nCertain medications, especially those used in chemotherapy and some antibiotics\n\nRadiation therapy\n\nBone marrow disease, such as leukemia or myelodysplastic syndromes

The human spleen is an organ that creates lymphocytes for the destruction and recycling of old red-blood cells. The spleen is also a blood reservoir. It supplies the body with blood in emergencies such as a bad cut. The speen is also the location where white blood cells trap organisms.

This is absolute basophils.  Basophils are a type of white blood cell.  These cells are responsible for controlling inflammation and damage of tissues in the body, such as liver inflammation due to hepatitis. Multiplying the percentage of basophils by the total number of white blood cells will give the "absolute" number of these types of cells.

WBC = white blood count.\nYou may have a high number of white cells for a lot of different reasons - infection, stress, reaction to medication, or cancer.  If you were referred to a hematologist, your doctor may be concerned about leukemia.  Get it checked out.

White blood cells increase when there is an infection.  WBC;s are responsible for stopping virus's and infections and thats why they increase when there is an infection.  A low blood count can also be numerous diseases.  The technical term for Low WBC is Leukopenia, which means lack of WBC's.  With a low WBC, you have a greater risk of infection due to a compromised immune system and you should see a doctor and have more tests to find out why you have a low WBC.

the femur in our thigh. the bone marrow there makes many white blood cells too.

The red blood cell (RBC) count determines the total number of red cells (erythrocytes) in a sample of blood. Examination of the erythrocytes provides the doctor/physician with information concerning anemia-related problems and the bone marrow response (which is where RBC's are produced). \nAnemia is basically deficiency of blood in common language.\n\nWhite blood cells (WBC's) are part of the body's defense or immune system.The WBC count provides clues about certain illnesses, and helps physicians monitor a patient's recovery from others.\nBasically WBC count says all about our immunity.The elevation or decrease in WBC decides our disease-eg leukemia.For a layman, yes WBC says about immunity.\nYou want me to give more details??

A normal WBC is in the range of 4.8 to 10.8 thousand cells per microliter (uL) of blood. After the total WBC is determined, the WBC's are broken down into their different types. This is called a differential blood count or Diff.\n\nThere are five different types of white blood cells:\nNeutrophils\nLymphocytes\nMonocytes\nEosinophils\nBasophils\nThese different types all have unique functions in the normal processes of the body. Changes in the amounts of these different types, whether or not the WBC count is normal, high, or low, also gives the doctor important information.\n\nNormal Ranges for a Differential Blood Count:\nNeutrophils: 3150 to 6200/uL*\nLymphocytes: 1500 to 3000/uL\nMonocytes: 300 to 500/uL\nEosinophils: 50 to 250/uL\nBasophils: 15 to 50/uL\n*(/uL stands for per microliter of blood)

There are a number of different cell types in circulation in the blood stream. Here's a quick review:\n\nRed cells carry oxygen to the cells of the body. They are essentially bags of hemoglobin, the oxygen carrying molecule. Hemoglobin binds oxygen to iron atoms, which give the hemoglobin and thus the cells their distinctive red color. \nWhite cells (leukocytes, "clear cells") are divided into two types: \nPolymorphonuclear cells, are of three types: neutrophils, eosinophils, and basophils. \nNeutrophils fight bacterial infection. They form pus and are the chief ingredient of an abscess. See band cells. \nEosinophils are cells which are strongly related to allergy and the recognition of foreign things in the body such as parasites. \nBasophils are cells that are also part of the allergy and parasite recognition system.\nLymphocytes are the virus killers. There are two types of these: \nT-cells which remember what germs we've been exposed to and how to kill them. T-cells are the key component of the immune system that is missing in AIDS. \nB-cells that secrete the actual antibodies that attach to viruses and bacteria and identify them as things to be destroyed - rather like tagging the target with a laser so that the smart bomb will home in and blast the target. \nMonocytes are cells that are related to lymphocytes but have a killing and cleaning function. They cruise through the tissues of the body cleaning up debris and killing any bacteria they find. They are often increased in viral infections - a reassuring finding that your doctor may note on your child's blood count. See mononucleosis. \nPlatelets are the cells that plug leaks in the vascular system, the clotting cells. \n\n What are the different blood groups?   \n   The differences in human blood are due to the presence or absence of certain protein molecules called antigens and antibodies. The antigens are located on the surface of the red blood cells and the antibodies are in the blood plasma. Individuals have different types and combinations of these molecules. The blood group you belong to depends on what you have inherited from your parents.\n\nThere are more than 20 genetically determined blood group systems known today, but the AB0 and Rh systems are the most important ones used for blood transfusions. Not all blood groups are compatible with each other. Mixing incompatible blood groups leads to blood clumping or agglutination, which is dangerous for individuals.\n\nNobel Laureate Karl Landsteiner was involved in the discovery of both the AB0 and Rh blood groups.\n\n \n\n \n   \n    AB0 blood grouping system   \n    According to the AB0 blood typing system there are four different kinds of blood types: A, B, AB or 0 (null).\n\n \n   \n   Blood group A\nIf you belong to the blood group A, you have A antigens on the surface of your red blood cells and B antibodies in your blood plasma.\n\n\n\n \n   \n   Blood group B\nIf you belong to the blood group B, you have B antigens on the surface of your red blood cells and A antibodies in your blood plasma.\n\n\n\n \n   \n   Blood group AB\nIf you belong to the blood group AB, you have both A and B antigens on the surface of your red blood cells and no A or B antibodies at all in your blood plasma.\n\n\n\n \n   \n   Blood group 0\nIf you belong to the blood group 0 (null), you have neither A or B antigens on the surface of your red blood cells but you have both A and B antibodies in your blood plasma.\n\n \n\n \n   \n    Rh factor blood grouping system   \n \n \n   Many people also have a so called Rh factor on the red blood cell's surface. This is also an antigen and those who have it are called Rh+. Those who haven't are called Rh-. A person with Rh- blood does not have Rh antibodies naturally in the blood plasma (as one can have A or B antibodies, for instance). But a person with Rh- blood can develop Rh antibodies in the blood plasma if he or she receives blood from a person with Rh+ bloo
