Solution
The correct option is A Neutrophils
Neutrophils, eosinophils, and basophils are described collectively as granulocytes. They are distinguished by the nature of the granules in their cytoplasm and generally have small, multilobed nuclei. Neutrophils have nuclei with several lobes and fine purple granules in their cytoplasm. They are termed neutrophil because their granules are not very amenable to staining with either acidic or basic dyes. They have large indented nuclei, often kidney-shaped and very fine cytoplasmic granules.
So, the correct answer is 'Neutrophils'.
