The correct answer is:
NOT AVAILABLE

Basophils constitute of the circulating white blood cells. These are involved in specific kinds of inflammatory reactions and do not exhibit phagocytic activity.

Monocytes and neutrophils are phagocytic in nature and destroy foreign organisms entering the body.

Monocytes also migrate from blood stream to tissues and differentiate into resident macrophages, e.g., Kupffer cells in liver. Macrophages are also phagocytic in nature.
