Phagocytosis - engulfing
foreign
cells
A
white blood cell
will engulf a
pathogen
and
digestive enzymes
will
digest
the
microorganism
Producing antibodies
Every pathogen has
antigen
on its
surface
which is detected by the
body
When a WBC encounters a
pathogen
, it produces
antibodies
which
bind
to the
antigen
so they can be found and
destroyed
by other WBCs
