Final answer:

Eosinophils are highly phagocytic for antigen-antibody complexes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Eosinophils are phagocytic cells that can engulf and digest pathogens. They are particularly effective when antigen-antibody complexes are present. When antibodies bind to a target and form an antigen-antibody complex eosinophils can bind to it using their Fc receptor and carry out phagocytosis. This makes statement 1) True.
