Question: what is the difference between neutrophil and macrophages phagocytosis?
Answer: Whereas neutrophils contain a multi-lobed nucleus, macrophages, which are larger in size, contain a nucleus that is spherical in shape. As well, neutrophils make up a significant proportion of white blood cells (50 to 70 percent) while macrophages make up less than 10 percent of the total white cell count.
