<h2>Opsonization Process</h2>

Explanation:

Opsonization is right answer

Antibodies coat a microorganism and Complement proteins provide binding sites, neutrophils and enabling macrophages to phagocytize the organism.This phenomenon is termed <u>opsonization</u>
Opsonization (likewise, opsonization) is the sub-atomic system such as <em>organisms, or apoptotic cells and molecules</em> are chemically modified to have a more stronger attraction for the cell surface <em>receptors on NK cells and phagocytes </em>With the antigen-covered in opsonins, binding to immune cells is greatly enhanced
Opsonization occurs through the connection of an opsonin to an epitope of the pathogen or dead cells
Secure cells and pathogens all have contrarily charged cell membranes
