GRD114 Final Lab Exam Revision The Circulatory System Neutrophils (Polymorphonuclear leukocytes) - function as our body’s bacteria slayers (Bacteria killer) Eosinophils, found in mucous membranes of respiratory and digestive tracts, Involved in fighting against parasitic infections and regulating allergic reactions (histaminase) Basophils: Intensify inflammatory reaction and involved in allergic reactions release histamine (an inflammatory chemical) and heparin (an anticoagulant) Agranulocytes: Monocytes – (the largest white blood cells). Monocytes leave the circulation, enter tissue, and differentiate into macrophages Macrophages in tissues activate lymphocytes to mount an immune response Lymphocytes account for 25% or more of WBCs T cells and B cells (become plasma cells- produce antibodies) The Cardiac System The Immune System The Respiratory System alveolar ducts alveolar saccules pulmonary alveoli respiratory bronchiole The Digestive System The Digestive System The Urinary System The Male Reproductive System The Female Reproductive System
