Explain the function of neutrophils and monocytes?

Answer 1

Monocytes ARE a a type of leukocyte , part of the human body's immune system,

monocytes have 2 funtions:

1. to replenish macrophages and dendrites to normal state

2. monocytes can quickly (takes 8-12 hours and yes its not quickly....) go to the site of the infection and divide the tissue AND differentiate macrophages and dendritic cells to elicit an immune response...

Answer 2

Neutrophils are a type of white blood cell that play a key role in the body's immune defenses by engulfing and destroying bacteria and other pathogens. Monocytes are also a type of white blood cell that help fight off infections by becoming macrophages, which engulf and digest foreign particles and cellular debris. Both neutrophils and monocytes are crucial components of the body's innate immune response.

Answer 3

Neutrophils and monocytes serve similar functions in that they both work to fight off infections. When monocytes get into tissues they can turn into macrophages and present antigens. Neutrophils do not present antigens.

Answer 4

phagocytic cell in the blood, leaves blood and becomes a macrophage which phagocites bacteria, dead cells, cell fragments, and other debris within tissues.

Answer 5

Monocytes have two main important functions in the immune system: (1) replenish resident macrophages and dendritic cells under normal states, and (2) in response to inflammation signals,
