Biology
1 answer:
Hitman42 [59]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Since phagocytes are effective against any type of infectious/toxic agent.

Explanation:

Phagocytes are the cells of the immune system that are involved in the non-specific immune response. These cells serve to engulf and kill any pathogenic or infectious microbe that has entered the body. Since phagocytes do not require the presence of specific antigens or pathogens to mount the immune response, their action is "non-specific response".
