There Are Five Types of White Blood Cells
And in addition to that white blood cells are called leukocytes which come about from hemocytoblasts in response to two hormones called interleukins and colony stimulating factors.
There are two categories Granulocytes and Agranulocytes.
The granulocytes are neutrophils, eosinophils, and basophils.
The agranulocytes are monocytes and lymphocytes.
All of them are unique and have different functions.
Phew! that is just the white blood cells which compose like 1% of the blood. I still have to memorize all the details and all the other parts of the blood. I feel like I am making a lot of progress and I am glad to be finished with the chapter and I took great notes on it so there is no reason why I should not do well. Not to mention the fact that the test is not till tuesday and I am already rocking out chapters, notes, and study guides. I should do great right?
It is so much information but a lot of it does make sense when you really sit down , map it out, and think about it.
I sound like a loser, but I really truly love anatomy and physiology.

`RunLore`: the SRE buddy that investigates incidents — and learns from every fix
What you learn during an incident usually disappears the moment it's closed. RunLore is an open source SRE agent that investigates, points you at the likely root cause fast, and turns every resolution into knowledge you can reuse.

Perhaps ironically given the subject matter, I found this 34-minute video by Razbuten a bit intense, but I would still recommend it to people who work on onboarding, settings, etc.: In the video, the author tries to answer the question: how to make any giv...

Eight years ago, I wrote about my theory of restoring struggling teams, which came down to four steps: A team is falling behind if each week their backlog is longer than the week before. Solve by hiring more. A team is treading water if they’re able to get...
