Discussion
"Davidson Body" is present in
Answer: B
The Davidson (Davidsohn) body is present in the neutrophil, the polymorphonuclear white cell. It is the small drumstick-like projection of the nucleus that represents the inactive X chromosome of a female and is the basis of sex identification from blood films. Basophils, lymphocytes and monocytes do not show it. So B is correct. Davidsohn body is another name for the nuclear appendage of the neutrophil that is also called a drumstick, and its presence in a small percentage of the neutrophils of a female blood film helps to tell female blood from male. The other white cells, namely the basophil, lymphocyte and monocyte, do not show such an appendage.
