Solution

The correct option is B Neutrophils
A maximum number of white blood corpuscles is that of neutrophils. Neutrophil granulocytes are the most abundant type of white blood cells in mammals and form an essential part of the innate immune system. They are formed from stem cells in the bone marrow. They are short-lived and highly motile. Neutrophils are the most abundant white blood cell, constituting 60-70% of the circulating leukocytes
So, the correct answer is 'Neutrophils'
