Answer: The correct answer is macrophages

Step-by-step explanation:

Macrophages are examples of phagocytes, and they engulfs pathogens (disease-causing organisms such as viruses, bacteria) by pulling them into their vacuoles and digesting them completely.

Macrophages, and Other like T-cells, B lymphocytes and natural killer cells all help in the BODY DEFENCE. But unlike macrophage, others exert their function through a different mechanism.
