Receptors on the cell surface bind ligand molecules on the target, such as a pathogen, dead cell, or bead. As receptors bind more and more ligand molecules, the cell membrane progressively engulfs the target. Upon full engulfment, a phagosome is formed, which fuses with lysosomes, leading to digestion of the target.
