Question
Your report should include a TABLE which
1. lists the image number,
2. the numbers of each cell type (LYMPHOCYTES, MONOCYTES, NEUTROPHILS, EOSINOPHILES, BASOPHILS) found in each image
3. the cumulative totals from all images for each cell type. Refer to each image by the number appearing within it.
4. Write a brief explanation of your findings. Suggest whether or not your differential count indicates a healthy person. If not, suggest potential causes of the skewed percentages.
The differential count is the percent of each of the five cell types out of 100 total. There is a total of 100 identifiable leukocytes on the nine separate images.

4. Since it can be clearly seen from the above value of all the blood cells are within a normal range with an increase in the percentage of basophils.
Basophilic granulocytes or ‘basophils’ are a type of leucocyte (‘white blood cell’) that circulates in the blood. They are the rarest of the granulocytes (the others are neutrophils and eosinophils), usually representing less than 0.5% of leucocytes in the peripheral blood of humans or mice. Basophils can participate in the expression of acute and chronic and allergic diseases, including anaphylaxis, asthma, atopic dermatitis and hay fever. Basophils also can contribute to resistance to internal parasites (such as helminths) and ectoparasites (such as ticks). At a steady state, upon leaving the bone marrow, basophils reside mainly in the peripheral blood but can migrate into tissues such as lymph nodes, skin and the lungs where they can play roles in regulating immune responses or in the pathogenesis of diseases. When they participate in allergic reactions or responses to parasites, basophils release histamine and many other biologically active molecules that can contribute to inflammation
