Answer 1

The correct option is D

i- Granulocytes, ii- Monocytes, iii- Eosinophils

The WBCs are broadly classified into two types based on the presence and absence of granules, granulocytes and agranulocytes respectively. The agranulocytes are further classified into lymphocytes and monocytes. The granulocytes are classified into neutrophils, eosinophils and basophils based on the type of stain these cells take up.
