eosinophils
monocytes
basophils

Brief Explanations
Eosinophils are white blood cells that are activated by antigens bound to antibodies. They play a role in the immune response against parasitic infections and in allergic reactions. Monocytes are involved in phagocytosis and antigen - presentation. Basophils release histamine and other mediators in allergic reactions. Neutrophils are the most abundant white blood cells and are mainly involved in the innate immune response against bacterial infections.
