Explanation

White blood cells (leukocytes) are the immune system's primary defense cells. They identify and neutralize pathogens like bacteria, viruses, and foreign substances. White blood cells include lymphocytes (T cells and B cells), macrophages, and neutrophils, each playing different roles in protecting the body from infections and diseases. Red blood cells carry oxygen, platelets help with clotting, and nerve cells transmit signals.
