Answer to Question 1

Pneumocystis carinii infection (or pneumocystic pneumonia) and Mycobacterium avium-intracellulare (or Mycobacterium avium complex)

Answer to Question 2

Neutrophils contain about 70 of the total circulating white blood cells.
Eosinophils are related in some manner to allergy.
Basophils contain histamine and an anticoagulant called heparin.
Monocytes are actively phagocytic and increase in certain types of chronic infections.
Lymphocytes are primarily produced in the lymph nodes and spleen, but can also be manufactured elsewhere in the body where lymphoid tissue is present.
