Phagocytes. (Phago - means eat) and (cyte) is cell: These Phagocytes literally eat the invading microorganisms. See below for more information.
Phagocytic System of Defense : Under this defense system, invading microorganisms are ingested and destroyed by leucocytes of blood and macrophages of connective tissues. As mentioned before, both leucocytes and macrophages are amoeboid and mobile units of the defense system of body.
The leucocytes can move against bloodstream. They can also squeeze through pores of thin capillary walls to wander about in the tissues (Fig. 12.24). This phenomenon is termed diapedesis. In the tissue fluid, the leucocytes engulf

they eat them
The WBC's (White Blood Cells) enter the area with the bacteria. When the reach, they give off antibodies, which then go and attach to the bacteria. This stops the bacteria. Then the macrophages, or the largest WBC's devour the bacteria along with the antibodies. A chemical in the macrophage causes the bacteria to dissolve.
White blood cells eat bacteria because without white blood cells bacteria would be in our body all the time and we would always be poorly. Also the scientific term for eating when on the subject of white blood cells is engulf, therefore when you mention this word in your work or in a assessment you may get extra marks. Back to the origional question why do white blood cells eat bacteria, i believe that i was god who made us an programmed our boy to do intresting functions to prevent us from becomiong ill.
they "engulf" the bacteria
If an infection occurs and bacteria enters your body the white blood cells will produce antibodies to cover them and clump them together, then more white blood cells will engulf them and digest them. A lot of the white blood cells will then die but a few will stay alive as memory cells and if that bacteria enters again they will multipy and fight it before any harm id done. Platelets in the blood will also seal the wound that has been made to prevent any further dirt and bacteria from entering the body.Once you have had a disease the antibodies are produced much quicker the next time you catch the same infection and your body also has some immunity to it.hello people of earth
White blood cells engulfing and destroying disease-causing bacteria is an example of immunity.
by engulfing the bacteria
Phagocytes.
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.
To fight diseases, either by engulfing the bacteria or releasing anti bodies.

phagocytosis? i think not sure though

A macrophage is a type of white blood cell capable of engulfing and destroying harmful bacteria that have invaded the body
The combat of disease through phagocytosis (the engulfing of the bacterial cells through changing of the shape of the membrane) which encloses the bacteria within the white blood cell, where there are lysosomes containing enzymes which break down the bacteria.
