They release enzymes and chemicals after engulfing pathogen and destroy them.

What is engulfing a particle called?
When a cell engulfs a particle, it is called phagocytosis. Certain white blood cells phagocytize and digest infectious particles like bacteria to kill them.
Of the granulocytes phagocytosis is characteristic of the neutrophil and the?
Neutrophils are the only granulocytes that phagocytize bacteria. (Granuloctyes include neutrophils, eosinophils, and basophils.) Eosinophils do NOT phagocytize (eat); they kill parasidic worms by releasing enzymes and chemicals that create holes in the cells' membranes. Two types of agranulocytes are lymphocytes and monocytes. Monocytes function in phagocytosis. Also, monocytes turn into macrophages in tissues.
What is proteolytic bacteria?
The Proteobacteria are a major group (phylum) of bacteria.
What are the eukaryotes bacteria?
Eukaryotic bacteria are bacteria that have a delineated nucleus and organ bound organelles. They are the "true" bacteria.
Is protein a bacteria?
no. bacteria will contin protein, but protein itself is not a bacteria.
The leukocytes that phagocytize bacteria with lysosomal enzymes is the?
monocytes. WRONG.Neutrophils, also called polymorphonuclear leukocytes, phagocytize bacteria with lysosomal enzymes.
Before a monocyte can phagocytize bacteria it must transform into an what?
leukocytes
Type of leukocytes that perform phagocytize bacteria?
Neutrophils

Phagocytes are white blood cells with a lobed nucleus?
Macrophages. Macrophages are monocytes that have gained the ability to phagocytize bacteria in the tissues. They are agranular because, when stained, they do not have granules in their cytoplasm. This is just a classification of leukocytes (or white blood cells).
What would happen if a dust particle made it to the alveoli?
The alveolar macrophages would phagocytize(eat) it.
What blood cell eats things in your body?
Macrophages phagocytize (eat) bad things (pathogens)
When you get a cut what do white blood cells fight against?
They phagocytize and isolate any pathogen that may enter the wound.
What type of cells phagocytize foreign or injured cells and play a major role in providing protection against infections?
macrophages
When langerhans cells phagocytize pathogens where do they carry them to?
Regional lymph nodes where they present to T cells, activating the adaptive immune response.
When langerhans cells phagocytize where do they carry them?
Phagotized pathogen by langerhans cells are carried to the lymphocytes. The lymphocytes are a type of WBC that are located in the lymph nodes.
