Question

Pathogens inside the cell killed by

Answer 1

Answer:

Pathogenic bacteria are commonly classified as intracellular or extracellular pathogens. Intracellular bacterial pathogens can replicate within host cells, including macrophages, which ingest and kill microorganisms in a process called phagocytosis.

Thus the answer is phagocytosis process.

Answer 2

Pathogens inside the cell are killed by macrophages through the phagocytosis process.

Explanation:

• Phagocytosis is a cellular process for ingesting and eliminating particles larger than 0.5 μm in diameter, including microorganisms, foreign substances, and apoptotic cells.
• Phagocytosis is found in many types of cells and it is, in consequence, an essential process for tissue homeostasis.
• Phagocytosis is a critical part of the immune system. The phagocytosis in the immune system is to ingest and destroy pathogens (like viruses and bacteria) and infected cells.
• Phagocytosis is a type of endocytosis, which is when cells ingest molecules via active transport instead of molecules passively diffusing through a cell membrane.
