To explain: The phagocytic cell types that are involved in acute inflammatory response.
Concept introduction: Different kinds of immune cells are recruited that work specifically as well as non-specifically to remove the pathogens from the body. Phagocytosis is a process in which phagocytes are involved in engulfing, destroying, and removing pathogenic microorganism and foreign debris from the body.
