Phagocytosis is a cellular process in which a cell engulfs and digests solid particles, bacteria, or debris. It involves membrane extension (phagocytic pseudopodia), engulfment of the target, and digestion within lysosomes. The term is used in microbiology and immunology to describe a key mechanism of innate immunity and cellular clearance.
