Phagocytosis is defined as a process of ingestion of bacteria or other infectious agent by phogocytes.

In human beings, the major and professional phagocytes are White Blood cells. These cells are specialized in attacking infectious agents that enters the body and kill them by engulfing them.  

In protozoan, the phagocytosis starts with the ingestion step, in which an infection agent is taken up by protozoans and form a special vacuole like structure which secretes lysosomes enzymes that attack the agent and kill it and then removed from body by egestion.  

Hence, there is not any significant difference between the process of phagocytosis in humans and protozoan; however the steps included vary in both.

What is the inevitable result of commercialization of reproduction, which is governed by contract and the purchase of body parts
Contact [7]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

The inevitable result of the commercialization of reproduction, which is governed by contract and the purchase of body parts and functions is that unfortunately, a "business of the body" has been created, many times in an irresponsibly way.

This has opened an ethical debate about the sacrality of the human body or if it is a simple or another way to do business as if you were selling auto parts, furniture, or tools.

And then, here comes religion and its point of view and perspectives. Many Americans do not agree with the idea of having a business with the human body. Most of these people think that the human body is sacred and deserves sacred treatment, not an industrial one.

So the debate in the United States society goes on, and for some, it is a new business; a very profitable one. For others, is a questionable practice that has to be regulated.
