Explanation:


Hello!

Let's solve this!


White blood cells serve to fight viruses and bacteria, that is, some infection. When we perform a blood test, and the result is higher than normal, we will assume that there is an infection.


Therefore, we conclude that the correct answer is option 3. an infection in the body, resulting in a large number of WBCs being generated.
