Properties of WBCs
Diapedesis:
WBCs can squeeze through the pores of blood vessels (even the
pore is much smaller than the cell size) by the process of
diapedesis.
Ameboid motion:
Once WBCs have entered the tissue spaces, they move through by
ameboid motion. They can move at least three times their own
length each minute.
Phagocytosis:
It's an essential process especially for the neutrophils and
monocytes. Selective structures can be ingested then digested via
this process. Phagocytes have proteolytic enzymes, lipases and
other agents (killer system) that kill the foreign materials.
Chemotaxis:
Different chemical substances can attract WBCs and make it move
toward the site of the chemicals. It depends on the concentration
gradient of these secreted substances.

What else can I help you with?
Which if the three move the slowest a paramecium amoeba or euglena?
Amoebas move the slowest out of the three organisms (paramecium, amoeba, euglena). They use pseudopods to move and typically glide along surfaces at a slow pace.
What pushes the amoeba?
Amoeba move through pseudopodia, i.e., due to continuous movements of its ectoplasm and endoplasm.
Why would an Amoeba die if placed in salt water?
Freshwater amoeba in salt water will have a higher solute content outside of the amoeba. The water in the amoeba will want to move out of the amoeba and into the environment. This will cause the amoeba to shrivel and die.
Which organism moves faster amoeba or paramecium and why?
Paramecium moves faster than amoeba because it has cilia, tiny hair-like structures that beat rapidly to propel the organism through the water. Amoeba, on the other hand, moves by extending its pseudopods, which is a slower form of movement compared to cilia.
Which of the following parts is necessary for movement by pseudopodia A Cilia B cytoplasm C Vacuole D Amoeba?
A cytoplasm is necessary for movement by pseudopodia in amoeba. Pseudopodia are temporary cytoplasmic projections that the amoeba extends and retracts to move and capture prey.
How fast can amoeba move?
An amoeba can move 2.6 billion light years. Hopes that this helps!!!!! =D
What body part allows amoeba to move?
The psuedopod is used to help the amoeba move, and also to eat. It is a part of the amoeba's body that it can stretch out and pull itself with.
Which if the three move the slowest a paramecium amoeba or euglena?
Amoebas move the slowest out of the three organisms (paramecium, amoeba, euglena). They use pseudopods to move and typically glide along surfaces at a slow pace.
What does an amoeba use to move?
pseudopodia
What protistans move by the means of pseudopods?
amoeba
What pushes the amoeba?
Amoeba move through pseudopodia, i.e., due to continuous movements of its ectoplasm and endoplasm.
Is Amoeba a nonliving?
amoebas are alive and able to move and eat
Why would an Amoeba die if placed in salt water?
Freshwater amoeba in salt water will have a higher solute content outside of the amoeba. The water in the amoeba will want to move out of the amoeba and into the environment. This will cause the amoeba to shrivel and die.
How do protozoans move'?
Protozoans move with the help Pseudopodia, cilia and flagella. Pseudopodia - Amoeba Cilia - Paramaecium Flagella - Euglena
Which organism moves faster amoeba or paramecium and why?
Paramecium moves faster than amoeba because it has cilia, tiny hair-like structures that beat rapidly to propel the organism through the water. Amoeba, on the other hand, moves by extending its pseudopods, which is a slower form of movement compared to cilia.

A cytoplasm is necessary for movement by pseudopodia in amoeba. Pseudopodia are temporary cytoplasmic projections that the amoeba extends and retracts to move and capture prey.
What protists move by extension of false feet called pseudopodia?
Amoeba
