These immune cells are called phagocytes, such as macrophages and neutrophils. They recognize and engulf foreign particles through a process called phagocytosis, where the invader is enclosed in a vesicle and broken down by enzymes. This is a critical mechanism for removing pathogens and maintaining the body's defense against infections.
Macrophages are a type of immune cell that can engulf and digest microbes. They play a key role in the body's immune response to infection.
Phagocytes or macrophages.
1: Can squeeze it and kill it.2: It produces antibodies that makes chemicals.3: It swallows (engulf) microbes.(answered by a 11 year old.)
To 'engulf' bacteria if you have an infection
white blood cells or immune system....
Lysosomes and Phagocytes to digest and engulf used pathogens and bacteria
Phagocytosis

No, basophils do not engulf and digest bacteria. Basophils are a type of white blood cell that release chemicals like histamine to promote inflammation and help the body defend against parasites and allergens. Phagocytic white blood cells like neutrophils and macrophages are responsible for engulfing and digesting bacteria.
I think Phagocytes
Phagocytes or macrophages.
Leucocytes are blood cells that engulf and digest bacteria and fungi; and is an important part of the body's defence system.
Macrophages are "big eaters" and are a type of white blood cell that engulf and digest cellular debris, foreign substances, microbes, and cancer cells in a process called phagocytosis.

yes, it can engulf things smaller than itself, and digest them
Yes, phagocytes can engulf germs
