Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Neutropenia is a condition where there is a decrease in the number of neutrophils, a type of white blood cell (WBC). This often leads to an increased risk of infections. Hypochromia is a condition where there is a decrease in the amount of hemoglobin in red blood cells, not WBCs. Leukocytosis is an increase in the number of WBCs. Chronic lymphocytic leukemia is a type of cancer affecting WBCs. Spherocytosis is a condition where red blood cells become spherical in shape, not affecting WBCs.
