A white blood cell engulfing foreign materials is more likely to carry out Endocytosis.

Explanation:

  • Endocytosis is the process by which a cell takes up a macromolecule into is cytoplasm by forming a vessicle.
  • In the question two cases are given, both the cases involve the formation of membrane bound  vessicle but in different ways.
  • The excretion of hormones involves the movement of molecule outside the cytoplasm. This process is exocytosis.
  • The engulfment of an antigen by WBC involves taking up of molecule within the cell so that it can be killed and digested. Thus in  this case  Endocytosis is more likely to occur..

The answer to this is the Immune System.

The Immune system is made up of a network of cells and tissues and organs that work together to protect the body. The white blood cells (also known as Leukocytes) is part of the immune system, they help destroy disease causing organisms or substances.
That is why when you fall ill and like a few days later you are all better, that is because of the immune system.
Sometimes when somebody has a weak immune system they fall ill more easily and could die because the bacteria that makes you sick isn't being destroyed by the immune system. Sometimes the person has to go to the hospital for treatment and some medications that can help support their immune system.

Hope this helped :)
Have a great day

In the process of photosynthesis, oxygen is produced from the carbon dioxide. As the oxygen in the jar increases, the leaf disk rises with in the jar which also signifies the higher oxygen production with higher rate of photosynthesis in presence of high intensity of light.
