Explanation
The normal white blood cell (WBC) count ranges from 5,000 to 10,000 per cubic millimeter of blood. Leukemia, or blood cancer, is characterized by an abnormal increase in the WBC count, typically ranging from 20,000 to 1,000,000/mm3 due to their excessive production in the bone marrow. Hemolysis refers to the breakdown of red blood cells (RBCs). Hemophilia is a condition in which blood clots slowly, while thrombosis is the formation of blood clots inside blood vessels.
