Which leukocyte is the most abundant in normal differential count? neutrophil
True or False: eosinophils numbers increase during allergic reactions true
True or False: erythrocytes are also called granulocytes because granules are visible in their cytoplasm when using Wright's stain. False
Define anemia: when your blood produces a lower than normal amount of healthy red blood cells.
Define polycythemia: having a high concentration of red blood cells in your blood
