How do White blood cells get rid of Harmful microbes?
White blood cells use phagocytosis to remove foreign particles from the blood stream. These cells will literally engulf foreign particles that are the same size as itself. There are two types of white blood cells which act as phagocytes: macrophages and polymorphic leucocytes. To be phagocytosed, particles need to bind to the receptors on the phagocyte. Then the particle is engulfed and absorbed.

Food vacuoles fuse with what?
When food vacuoles fuse with lysozymes (type of organelle), the digestive enzymes in the lysozyme digest the food particles. This is how intracellular digestion occurs, the feeding mechanism for many prokaryotes and even some cells in the human body such as macrophages which engulf foreign cells.
What do you mean by phagocytic in nature?
"Phagocytic" describes the function of certain immune cells that engulf and digest foreign particles, such as bacteria and debris, to help protect the body from infection and maintain tissue health. These cells, like macrophages and neutrophils, play a vital role in the immune response.

What do macrophage do?
Macrophages are "big eaters" and are a type of white blood cell that engulf and digest cellular debris, foreign substances, microbes, and cancer cells in a process called phagocytosis.
Does white blood cells called basophils engulf and digest bacteria?
