Verified step by step guidance

Understand the role of leukocytes: Leukocytes, or white blood cells, are crucial components of the immune system, responsible for defending the body against infections and foreign invaders.

Identify the types of leukocytes: Common types include neutrophils, lymphocytes, and monocytes, each with specific functions in the immune response.

Recognize the movement of leukocytes: Leukocytes have the ability to move through the walls of blood vessels, a process known as diapedesis, to reach and protect tissues.

Compare leukocytes to other blood cells: Red blood cells (erythrocytes) are the most abundant cells in the blood, not leukocytes. This is a key point in identifying the false statement.

Evaluate the statements: Based on the understanding that leukocytes are not the most abundant cells in the blood, identify this as the false statement among the options provided.
