леукоцити

леукоцити

They exist in variable numbers and types but make up a very small part of human blood volume. Some leukocytes (i. E. , lymphocytes) provide a physiological defense against infection. As a result, their numbers increase when the body is under attack by bacteria and viruses. Some other types of leukocytes (i. E. , macrophages ) have the function of getting rid of old unneeded blood cells.
