Question

Find the correct descending order of percentage proportion of leucocytes in human blood.

• A. Neutrophils --> Basophils --> Lymphocytes Acidophils (Eosinophils) -->Monocytes
• B. Monocytes --> Neutrophils --> Lymphocytes --> Acidophils-->Basophils
• C. Neutrophils --> Lymphocytes Monocytes --> Acidophils -->Basophils
• D. Lymphocytes Acidophils --> Basophils --> Neutrophils-->Monocytes

Answer 1

The correct option is C Neutrophils --> Lymphocytes Monocytes --> Acidophils -->Basophils

The relative proportions of the different types of white blood cells are: Neutrophils (roughly 60 – 70%), Lymphocytes (roughly 20 – 30%), Monocytes (approximately 1 – 6%), Eosinophils (approximately 1 – 3%), Basophils (less than 1%).

Thus, the correct answer is 'Neutrophils --> Lymphocytes Monocytes --> Acidophils -->Basophils.'
