Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Macrophages are specialized immune cells that are distributed throughout the body, particularly in areas where bacterial microbes tend to attack, such as the lungs, liver, and spleen. These cells are equipped with specialized receptors that allow them to recognize and engulf invading bacteria, and they also produce a variety of chemical signals that help to recruit other immune cells to the site of infection. While leukocytes (white blood cells) are a broader category that includes macrophages, they do not have the same level of specificity for bacterial infections. Red blood cells and interferons do not play a direct role in engulfing or destroying bacteria.
