b. The leucocytes are of  types.
 
c.  contain small granules in their cytoplasm. There are  types of granulocytes.
 
d. are large and have a \(2 - 7\) lobed nucleus. They form \(60 - 65 \%\) of the total leucocytes. They are phagocytic, and their numbers increase during infection and inflammation.
 
e.  have a bilobed nucleus and comprise about \(2 - 3 \%\) of the total leucocytes.
 
f. have a lobed nucleus and comprise about \(0.5 - 1 \%\) of the total leucocytes. They release chemicals like  histamine, heparin and serotonin during inflammation which are involved in the inflammatory reactions. 
 
g.  do not contain granules in the cytoplasm. There are two types.
