Phagocytosis is a method that involves a cell engulfing solid nutrients. The cell surrounds the material that it is going to â??eat,â?? pulling the nutrients inside it and forming a food vesicle. The food vesicle connects with a specialized cellular organelle called a lysosome. The lysosome contains enzymes that can digest the solid material in the food vesicle. The nutrients are released from the solid material and then absorbed through the membrane of the food vesicle and into the rest of the cell.
