How does phagoctosis work?
Phagocytosis is a process where specialized immune cells called phagocytes engulf and digest foreign particles, such as bacteria or debris, to protect the body from infection and maintain tissue health. Phagocytes recognize the foreign particles through specific receptors on their cell surface, engulf them into a vesicle called a phagosome, and then fuse this vesicle with lysosomes containing enzymes to break down the ingested material. The digested particles are then eliminated from the body.
