Answer:

They break down the pathogens that enter the body

Explanation:

  1. Macrophages are the first line of defense .
  2. They engulf any pathogen that gets in their way in a process called phagocytosis

Phagocytosis

  • When the macrophages ingest the pathogen ,the cell membrane surrounds the pathogen to form a vesicle known as a phagosome
  • Later this phagosome is combined with a lysosome ,which is a vesicle containing digestive enzymes to form phagolysosome.
  • The digest enzymes in the lysosomes breaks the pathogen down.
