Explanation:

A total WBC count gives the overall number of white blood cells, while a differential WBC count identifies the types and proportions of different WBCs (e.g., neutrophils, lymphocytes). To determine the specific cause of an infection or disorder, knowing the types of WBCs involved (from differential count) is more useful, as different conditions affect different WBC types. So a total WBC count is not more useful than a differential count for pinpointing specific causes.

Answer:

False
