White blood cells fight infections from bacteria, viruses, fungi. and other pathogens (organisms that cause infection). One important type of white blood cell is the neutrophil. These cells are made in bone marrow and travel in the blood throughout the body. They sense infections, gather at sites of infection, and destroy the pathogens.
When the body has too few neutrophils, the condition is called neutropenia. This makes it harder for the body to fight off pathogens. As a result the person is more likely to get sick from infections. In general, an adult who has fewer than 1,000 neutrophils in a microliter of blood has neutropenia.
If the neutrophil count is very low, (fewer than 500 neutrophils in a microliter of blood), it is called severe neutropenia. When the neutrophil count gets this low, even the bacteria normally living in a person's mouth, skin, and gut can cause serious infections.
Answer:
Farmers have been using selective breeding for improving their crop qualities and producing animals with better characteristics.
improved so that mankind can benefit from it.
Selective breeding is not okay on a bigger level where it might eradicate the natural varieties of plants and animals completely. When done on a larger level, the wild-type traits of plants and animals will change and be removed completely. This will lead to lesser genetic diversity.
