Phagocytosis
Phagocytes make up three-quarters of the body's white blood cells. They destroy pathogens by engulfing them.
It's called phagocytosis. Macrophages mainly phagocytose the pathogens.
Activated by lymphocytes, Polymorph phagocytes absorb or envelope mostly bacteria, compartmentalize it, barrage it with enzymes attempting to destroy it, or radically alter it. Macrophages injest and destroy a wider variety of invaders, including viruses, and act as anitgen presenting cells which serve to increase immune response. Some epithelial and reticular cells also act as phagocytes in that the can injest and destroy or remove invaders.
Phagocytes ingest and break down pathogens through a process called phagocytosis. Once inside the phagocyte, the pathogen is degraded by enzymes and destroyed within specialized compartments called phagolysosomes. The remnants are then eliminated from the body.
White blood cells, specifically a type called phagocytes (which include neutrophils and macrophages), are responsible for sweeping up and digesting bacteria that enter the body. They identify, engulf, and destroy pathogens through a process called phagocytosis. Once the bacteria are engulfed, enzymes within the phagocytes break them down, effectively neutralizing the threat. This process is a crucial part of the body's immune response.
Phagocytes, such as neutrophils and macrophages, are leukocytes that respond to nonspecific foreign invaders. They engulf and destroy pathogens through phagocytosis, helping to protect the body from infections.
White blood cells that engulf and destroy pathogens are called monocytes (which circulate in the blood and reside in the bodies tissues) and neutrophil or neutrocytes (which circulate in the bloodstream as well but are particularly responsive to bacterial and fungal infections and inflammations).
I'm not sure if you're looking for a more specific answer, but phagocytes engluf pathogens and wastes via phagocytosis.
Yes, that's correct. Phagocytosis is a process where specialized cells called phagocytes engulf and consume pathogens, such as bacteria and viruses, to destroy them and protect the body from infections.

Yes, white blood cells can ingest pathogens through a process called phagocytosis. This allows white blood cells to destroy and eliminate harmful pathogens, such as bacteria and viruses, from the body.

A cell that engulfs another cell is known as a phagocyte. Phagocytes are a type of white blood cell that engulf and digest foreign particles, such as bacteria or dead cells, through a process called phagocytosis. This process helps the immune system to remove pathogens and cellular debris from the body.
White blood cells called neutrophils are the most abundant type of phagocytes in the body and play a crucial role in fighting bacterial infections. They engulf and destroy bacteria through a process called phagocytosis, helping to eliminate the chances of infection.

in some instances, adherence occurs easily, and the microorganism is readily phagocytized. Microorganisms can be more readily phagocytized if they are first coated with certain serum proteins that promote attachment of the microorganisms to the phagocyte. this process is called opsonization.
