| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| What granulocyte has rose-violet granules? | Neutrophils |
| What percent Neutrophils will you see of the WBCs in peripheral blood? | 50-70% |
| What granulocyte phagocytize bacteria? | Neutrophils |
| What WBC is considered the garbage disposal? | Mononcyte |
| What percent Eosinophils will you see of the WBCs in peripheral blood? | 1-3% |
| What percent Basophils will you see of the WBCs in peripheral blood? | 0-1% |
| What percent Lymphocytes will you see of the WBCs in peripheral blood? | 20-45% |
| What percent Monocytes will you see of the WBCs in peripheral blood? | 2-11% |
| What is a normal WBC count in peripheral blood? | 5000-10,000 |
| Where do T Lymphocytes go when they leave the bone marrow? | Thymus |
| What lymphocyte produces antigens and are the recognizer cells? | T lymphs |
| What lymphoctes produce antibodies? | B lymphs |
| What WBC is considered the yard stick when looking at a blood smear? | Mature lymphs |
| What WBC is large with an irreguarly shaped nucleus and ground glass cytoplasm? | Monocyte |
| What is used to identify very young WBCs? | Cell markers |
| What cell markers are associated with young lymphocytes? | TdT and calla. (also CD4 and CD8 but I think the first two will suffice. |
| What cell markers are associated with young neutrophils? | CD33, CD13 and CD34. CD34 falls off early. |

| What granulocyte might cause anaphlaxis or hemorrhage? | Basohpils |
| What do Eosinophil granules contain? | Antihistamine |
| What do Basophil granules contain? | Histamine and heparin. |
| What do Basophils become in the tissue? | Mast cells |
| What do Monocytes become in the tissue? | Macrophages |
