White blood cells
These fight infections. There are three sorts of white
blood cell – granulocytes, monocytes and lymphocytes. They all play a
different role in fighting infection.
Windpipe
This is the tube that carries air to your lungs. It
starts just below your voicebox in your neck and carries on inside your
ribcage until it gets to the bottom of your breastbone. It then divides
into two bronchi.
Wisdom teeth
You have four wisdom teeth right at the back of your
mouth, but they don’t usually come through until your late teens to
early twenties. When they come through, they may be in the wrong place,
so you may need them removed.
