What are white blood cells called that engulf and destroy bacteria?
exocytosis, phagocytosis,pinocytosis, osmosis,
Which is a method of avoiding phagocytosis?
Inducing phagocytosis.
What is the movement of particles into the cell?
The movement of large particles of solid food or whole cells into the cell is called phagocytosis. Phagocytosis occurs in three separate steps.
Phagocytosis is a form of exocytosis?
No, phagocytosis is a form of endocytosis.
An amoeba engulfs food by?
Surrounding the food with pseudopod.
An antibody oponizes invading organisms is in order to enhance the function of?
To enhance the function of phagocytosis. The antibody binds to the antigen (on the organism). The antibody also binds to the phagocyte thus facilitating the coming together of the antibody and phagocyte and phagocytosis can then proceed.
What is it called when some of the chemicals released during complement fixation enhance phagocytosis?
Opsonization Chemotaxis
What are white blood cells called that engulf and destroy bacteria?

A defense cell engulfing a bacterium illustrates?
Phagocytosis
An organism with a cell wall would have the most difficulty doing which process?
Phagocytosis.
Where does phagocytosis happen?
Phagocytosis takes place in the blood.
Which is a method of avoiding phagocytosis?
Inducing phagocytosis.

Phagocytosis is a form of exocytosis?
No, phagocytosis is a form of endocytosis.
An amoeba engulfs food by?
Surrounding the food with pseudopod.
What are the benefits and drawbacks of phagocytosis?
The main benefit of phagocytosis is that it is a natural defense against bacterial infection. Drawbacks are that you can get coiling phagocytosis and it could destroy good bacteria.
What is the name of the process where a white blood cell engulfs a pathogen?
The process by which white blood cells engulf bacteria is termed phagocytosis. In some organisms, phagocytosis is how food is absorbed.
