Summary Introduction
To review:
The differences between leukocytes and lymphocytes.
Introduction:
In the human body, a liquid connective tissue called blood is present for the transportation of various dissolved molecules and gases. The components of the blood are also significant in providing immunity and promoting blood clotting. The blood cells are broadly classified into three categories, namely erythrocytes, leukocytes, and thrombocytes or platelets.
