OLEGan [10]
Atoms may have different numbers of neutrons. Atoms are the smallest fraction of an element that can exist, and still show the properties of the element. They consists of electrons (negatively charged), protons (positively charged), and neutrons (no charge). The number of electrons is equivalent to the number of protons normally however an atom may loose or pick up electrons and  have a positive charge or negative charge. The number of neutrons in the nucleus may vary within a given element to give varieties of atoms we call isotopes.

Dendritic cells and macrophages kill by ingestion and destruction of particulate matter in a process called phagocytosis. Dendri
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

The statement is true

Explanation:

Hematopoietic stem cells give rise to myeloid progenitor and lymphoid progenitor and these two progenitors give rise to many immune cells. Dendritic cells are produced by both the progenitors and macrophages are produced by myeloid progenitor.

Both macrophages and dendritic cells are phagocytes. In phagocytosis, the foreing particles are injected by these phagocytes and they are destryoyed by the action of digestive enzymes present in these phagocytic cells.  

Macrophages are present in tissue and if they are present in blood they are called monocytes. Therefore the statement is true.
