The Immune System: Phagocytosis A-level Biology

Working process of Phagocytosis · The cell membrane of the phagocytes has receptors which bind to foreign substances · Endocytosis causes cytoplasm to engulf

Phagocytosis can be assayed in vitro by measuring the engulfment of a substrate by phagocytic cells Various substrates may be used including red blood

phagocytosis : Phagocytosis Cells pull particles inward and engulf them in spherical vesicles in an energy-requiring process called endocytosis Phagocytosis (“cellular
