Bacteria don't eat but they produce their food by the use of light through photosynthesis or the use of chemical substances for energy, chemosynthesis.
The immune system fights bacteria that enters the body. It does this by using various defense mechanisms such as white blood cells, antibodies, and complement proteins to identify and destroy the invading bacteria.
Phagocytosis by white blood cells, such as macrophages and neutrophils, is an example of the immune system's innate defense mechanism against disease-causing bacteria. These cells recognize and engulf the bacteria to prevent infection and promote immunity.
Yes, white blood cells are responsible for engulfing and digesting bacteria that enter the body. This process is known as phagocytosis, where the white blood cells detect, engulf, and destroy invading bacteria to help protect the body from infection.
White blood cells, specifically phagocytes, are responsible for eating and digesting foreign particles, such as bacteria and viruses, in the body. This process helps to protect the body against infections and pathogens.
Organisms that have cells without nuclei are called prokaryotes. This includes bacteria and archaea. Prokaryotic cells do not have a defined nucleus but instead have a nucleoid region where the genetic material is located.
they eat them
by engulfing the bacteria
For the most part, they "repel infection", but eat bacteria in doing so.
they "engulf" the bacteria
You Must mean White blood cells. White blood cells kill bacteria by first engulfing them, this process i believe is called phagocytocis. They literally eat the bacteria and digest it.
antibody
White blood cells eat bacteria because without white blood cells bacteria would be in our body all the time and we would always be poorly. Also the scientific term for eating when on the subject of white blood cells is engulf, therefore when you mention this word in your work or in a assessment you may get extra marks. Back to the origional question why do white blood cells eat bacteria, i believe that i was god who made us an programmed our boy to do intresting functions to prevent us from becomiong ill.
Bacteria can attack and kill cells. White blood cells can kill bacteria.
No. They just "eat" them just as you would if you ate a sandwich.
no. they eat eachother. (:
White blood cells fight infection while the red blood cells carry blood to your heart.
They engulf it! When you get a cut, your bloodvessels dialate and the white blood cells (phagocytes) will leak from the nearest blood vessels and eat the bacteria near the cut. i think it has to do with innate immunity or imflammatory response
