Answer 2

$\bold{Types \: of \: blood \: cells}$

There are three types of blood cells

◼Red blood cells(Erythrocytes)

◼White blood cells(Leukocytes)

◼Platelets(Thrombocytes)

$\bold{Red \: blood \: cells \:(Erythrocytes)}$

◼It contains a respiratory pigment called haemoglobin (haemin - iron and Globin - protein) ehich combines with oxygen forming an unstable compound oxyhaemoglobin which readily gives up oxygen to all tissues.

◼Takes up carbondioxide from tissues to lungs.

$\bold{White \: blood \: cells \:(leukocytes)}$

◼The protect our body from any antigen that might have enterted in our body by engulfing it by process of phagocytosis.

◼They protect our body from poisonous substances by producing antitoxins and antibodies.

◼They are further of two types :-

▶Granular which have nucleus divided into lobes ,they are neurophills , eosinophills and basophills

▶Non granular and with a single large vacoule which are Lymphocytes and monocytes.

$\bold{Platelets \:(Thrombocytes)}$

◼The allows the process of blood clotting when a blood vessel gets cut up to prevent further loss of blood and to prevent entry if antigen or any disease causing germs.
