Because they work as a team to take down those germs or diseases.

=Different kinds?= Some different types of white blood cells are: 1. Neutrophils: They are the first to attack foreign invaders into the bloodstream.This white blood cell surrounds the unwanted object and self-destructs to get rid of it. 2. Basophils they are in the bloodstream and prevent blood clots by releasing chemicals into the bloodstream to stop the blood from getting into clumps. 3. Monocytes are the largest type of white blood cell. They destroy harmful bacteria and wastes from the cells. 4. Lymphocyte are made up of three different kinds of cells, B, T and NK and they work as a team to create antibodies.and the eosinophil. Scientists have discovered these blood cells lined up with one another while using microscopes to look at blood on a slide.

=Special structures?= The lymphocyte Is a structure that acts like a very small cytoplasm. An antibody also known as an immunoglobulin, is a large Y-shape [|protein] produced by [|plasma cells] that is used by the [|immune system] to identify and neutralize foreign objects such as [|bacteria] and [|viruses]. Immunoglobulin, is just a fancy way of saying antibody.



=Affecting diseases?=

A disease that affects white blood cells is Aplastic Anemia. This is when bone marrow does not produce enough blood, red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets. Bone marrow is a sponge-like tissue inside the bones. It makes stem cells that develop into red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets. Some symptoms of the disease are nosebleeds, bleeding gums and pale skin. Treatments for these symptoms are antibiotics, bone marrow stimulants and blood transfusions.



=Conclusion:= In conclusion white blood cells keep you from extreme sickness, fatal bleeding and even toppling over on the sidewalk. These small cells are the superheros of your body. These microscopic cells help save lives every day...
