what are lymphocytes and monocyte
Hello dear student,
As you asked about lymphocytes and monocytes. So we are happy to help you with this . First of all these are the cells which are found in blood. Monocyte and lymphocytes both are the types of white blood cells.
- Monocytes : Monocytes are similar to neutrophils. They destroy bacteria, but usually those causing chronic infections. Monocytes also play a role in repairing damaged tissues.
- Lymphocytes : There are three types of lymphocytes.
- B lymphocytes produce antibodies to attack specific viruses, bacteria, and other foreign invaders.
- T lymphocytes help to identify cells that require an immune response.
- Natural killer cells, the third type, destroy cancer cells and viruses.
I hope this was helpful to you
