Antibodies Fight Pathogens Agglutination Clumps Bacterial Cells Easily

Antibodies fight pathogens through agglutination, forming clumps that are easier for phagocytes to engulf, and by acting as markers that stimulate phagocytosis.

- agglutination - clumps of bacterial cells - more easily detected by phagocytes - acts as markers - stimulate phagocytosis
