which type of cell makes pus when it dies?
a. lymphocytes
b. macrophages
c. neutrophils
d. antigens
Neutrophils are a type of white blood cell. When they die during an immune response (such as fighting an infection), they contribute to the formation of pus. Pus is a mixture of dead neutrophils, bacteria, and tissue debris. Lymphocytes are involved in immune responses like antibody production. Macrophages engulf pathogens and cellular debris but are not the main cell type forming pus. Antigens are substances that trigger an immune response, not cells that form pus.
