Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -During phagocytosis, cells are able to ingest large particles (greater than 0.5 µm in diameter) which serves not only to engulf and destroy invading bacteria and fungi but also to clear cellular debris at wound sites and to dispose of aged erythrocytes.
Detailed explanation-2: -Phagocytosis is a fascinating process whereby a cell surrounds and engulfs particles such as bacteria and dead cells.
Detailed explanation-3: -Phagocytosis consists in recognition and ingestion of particles larger than 0.5 m into a plasma membrane derived vesicle, known as phagosome. Phagocytes can ingest microbial pathogens, but importantly also apoptotic cells.
