Purpose of granules in white blood cells?
I'm curious, what is the purpose of granules in granulocytes? (white blood cells with granules)
Thanks :) |
So, when's the homework due? Monday? :)

oh lol silly me
i wiki-ed it to no avail :( bummer. and no, it's not h/w :P |
Those granules I believe contain lots of enzymes and the like, that are released to attack an invading cell or virus.

thts what me and my friend thought too.
thanks for a more "constructive" reply. but it seems that basophils are responsible for allergic reactions, hardly anything to do with phagocytocis and monocytes can perform phagocytocis without the presence of granules. So it doesn't explain much :( boo. |
