The bacterial capsule. It's well organized and does not easily come off. It's slippery, which makes it difficult for phagocytes to hold on to.

Is septicemia a bacteria?
yes it is a blood bacteria xxx
What happens to the bacteria when it is blended with white blood cells?
The genetic material from the bacteria will get transfered into the white blood cell and more bacteria will be produced.
What blood cells kills bacteria?
You Must mean White blood cells. White blood cells kill bacteria by first engulfing them, this process i believe is called phagocytocis. They literally eat the bacteria and digest it.
What is the importance of capsules in causing disease?
Capsaules have an important role in disease causing properties (virulence) of some bacteria. Bacteria which have this structure can escape body defense mechanisms such as white blood cells (which are unable to destroy them through a process known as phagocytosis).
When they enclose bacteria certain types of white blood cells engulf bacteria and bring them into the cell what is this process called?
Phagocytosis
Blood agar and chocolate agar are types of enriched media that inhibit certain?
bacteria

What is the the importance of levelling?
* Blood: blood must be kept at a certain pH to ensure the haemoglobin can bond to oxygen. Otherwise, the formation of carbonic acid by dissolved carbon dioxide can cause anaemia and oxygen deprivation. * Plants: many plants require a certain soil pH, otherwise they are unable to grow. * Bacteria: most bacteria have a certain range of pH which they grow best in. Outside this range, growth can be stunted or even prevented entirely. * Enzymes: Like bacteria, some enzymes work best in certain pH ranges, but will almost cease entirely when not.
