neutrophils, eosinophils, basophils

344
Q

what are the 2 agranular cells

A

lymphocytes, monocytes

345
Q

neutrophil

A

Most Abundant, 50-70% of WBC’s, multi-lobed nucleus, move out of circulation into tissues to use phagocytosis to engulf pathogens

346
Q

eosinphils

A

Small percentage of WBC’s, contains a bilobed nucleus, Many large granules, function in parasitic infections, combat histamine, & phagocytize antigen-antibody complexes

347
Q

basophils

A

Small percentage of WBC’s, contains a U-shaped or lobed nucleus, release histamine, heparin, & serotonin related to allergic reactions

348
Q

lymphocytes

A

About 25-35% of all WBC’s, Large nucleus that takes up most of the cytoplasm

349
Q

B lymphocytes

A

antibody mediated immunity

350
Q

T lymphocytes

A

cell-mediated immunity

351
Q

natural killer cells

A

Destroy cancer cells

352
Q

monocyte

A

Relatively uncommon, Most become Macrophages and Dendritic cells

353
Q

macrophages

A

phagocytic in tissues and blood

354
Q

dendritic cells

A

phagocytic in the skin

355
Q

secretion

A

distal convoluted tubule

356
Q

filtration

A

renal corpuscle

357
Q

reabsorption

A

proximal convoluted tubule

358
Q

glomerular filtration

A

separates small components from the blood

359
Q

tubular secretion

A

large molecules move into nephron tubule

360
Q

tubular reabsorption

A

useful molecules move out of nephron tubule
