Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
5000-10,000 per cubic millimeter is the normal leukocyte count. 1000-2000 per cubic millimeter is an abnormally low leukocyte count. 4.2-6.2 million per cubic millimeter is the normal erythrocyte count. 1.2-2.2 million per cubic millimeter would indicate anemia.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Erythrocytes (red blood cells) are the most abundant cells of the blood, occupying approximately 48 of the blood.
