What part of the blood destroys dead and damaged cells?
White blood cells, specifically phagocytes, are responsible for destroying dead and damaged cells in the blood. Phagocytes engulf and digest these cells to clean up and maintain the health of the blood.
What are white blood cells that eliminate the chances of infection?
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.
Does phagocytes have another name?

What white blood cells that eliminate the chances of infection?
Phagocytes
What cells of the human body use phagocytes and why?
White Blood Cells yo.
What are blood cells that the body has?
White blood cells (Phagocytes and Lymphocytes) Red blood cells (also in the blood - Platelets and Plasma)
What is the migration of phagocytes and white blood cells to an inflamed area along a chemical gradient is called?
This process is called chemotaxis. Phagocytes and white blood cells are attracted to the site of inflammation by chemical signals released by damaged cells. Chemotaxis helps these cells locate and eliminate pathogens and damaged tissue in the inflamed area.
Is the process by which white blood cells move in and out of blood vessels called phagocytosis?
No. Phagocytosis is the process in which a cell engulfs and takes in a particle. Some white blood cells are phagocytes, taking in and destroying bacteria.
What are white blood cells that engulf and digest foreign celss are called?
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).
What is the two main type of white blood cells?
Lymphocytes and Phagocytes
