Quizplus · Accepted Answer

"Leukocyte" refers to a white blood cell, and "having neutral-staining granules" indicates a neutrophil.

Answer: B
 "Eosinophil" is the only other white blood cell listed that is formed in the bone marrow and has granules, although they are not neutral-staining.

The other cells listed do not fit the description given for the leukocyte in question.
