Question
The WBC count of a person's blood sample is 8000/cu mm. How many eosinophils and lymphocytes would be in the same blood sample approximately?
Options
A.300-500/cu mm and 1200-1500/cu mm respectively
B.$160 - 240/cumm$ and $1600 - 2000/cumm$ respectively
C.$300 - 500/cumm$ and $500 - 700/cumm$ respectively
D.$100 - 120/cumm$ and $160 - 200/cumm$ respectively
Solution
Sol. [Key Concept: Differential leukocyte count from total WBC count]
Eosinophils constitute 2-3% of total WBCs. Hence its value is approximately 2 to 3% of 8000/cu mm = 160-240/cu mm
Lymphocytes constitute 20-25% of total WBCs. Hence its value is approximately 20 to 25% of 8000/cu $mm = 1600 - 2000/cumm$
