Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The two classes of macrophages are fixed macrophages (present in particular tissues or organs and remain there) and free macrophages (circulate in blood and can migrate to any tissue). Mesenchymal cells and melanocytes are not types of macrophages. Mast cells and basophils are types of white blood cells but not macrophages. Neutrophils and eosinophils are also types of white blood cells but not macrophages. Microphages and adipocytes are not classes of macrophages.
