Answer 1

Human blood consist of different types of cells like red blood cells(RBC), white blood cells(WBC) and platelets. WBC or white blood cells are also known as Leukocytes. It help our body to fight against diseases and foriegn elements like bacteria and virus. white blood are produced in bone marow from hematopoietic stem cells. But some time abnormal increase or decrease in production of these cells causes severe problem like cancer in our body. Increase production of WBC causes cancer of bone marrow which is also called Leukemia. Different types of leukemia are as follows:

Acute lymphocytic leukemia- This is the starting phase of leukemia which progress to different part of the body. It increases with rapis speed and efeect the person badly very soon if not treated early.

Acute monocytic leukemia- In this type of leukemia most of the cells are monocytic and consist of promonocytes and monocytes. Generally women are affected with this types of abnormality. Promonocytes are generally light blue to grey in colour. These are granular in form.

Acute granulated leukemia- Acute granulated leukemia are also known as large granular lymphocytic leukemia. As the name suggest these types of cells are generally large and granulated in shape. this desease is generally originated from T-cells or NK-cells. these are generally less butt still agressive .

Chronic lymphocytic leukemia- This also result from abnormal function of lymphocytes and results in cancer of bone marrow and also in blood. Thus this type of cancer first start in bone marrow but then reached to blood. These cells are not completely matured thus not able to fight disease like normally WBC do. It shows it symptom after many years.

Infectious Mono- This is a type of infection which is generally caused by Epstein Bar virus. it is spead through saliva. Its common symptom include swollen lymph, fever etc.

Multiple myeloma- This is also the type of cancer. It generally takes place in plasma cells and thus also called plasma cell myeloma. it show its symptom in acute case but initially it idoes not show any symptom. Its main symptoms include bleeding, pain on bone and anaemia.

Myeloid leukemia- it is also a type of cancer which is caused bu abnormal increase of immature WBC. some time it also occur through other typrs of blood forming cells. it started in bone marrow but then spread into blood. in acut cases it spread to other part of body like CNS, lymph node, spllen and testicles.
