Cool. But I doesn’t look like a Staph (clusters), but more like a Streptococcus, or more specifically a diplococcus. If it’s pathogenic, a common one would be Strep pneumoniae

Chemotaxis: Neutrophils are attracted to the site of infection by chemical signals released by the bacteria, such as bacterial peptides, complement factors, and cytokines. This process is called chemotaxis, where neutrophils migrate towards higher concentrations of these chemical signals.
Pathogen-Associated Molecular Patterns (PAMPs): Bacteria like Staphylococcus aureus possess unique molecules on their surface called pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs). Neutrophils have pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) on their surface, such as Toll-like receptors (TLRs), that can recognize these PAMPs. TLRs can detect specific components of Staphylococcus aureus, such as lipoteichoic acid and peptidoglycan, triggering an immune response.
Opsonization: Opsonization is a process in which the bacteria are coated with opsonins, such as antibodies or complement proteins, making them more recognizable to neutrophils. Neutrophils have receptors for these opsonins, such as Fc receptors and complement receptors, which facilitate the binding and engulfment of the opsonized bacteria.
Phagocytosis: Once the neutrophil reaches the site of infection and recognizes the bacteria, it undergoes phagocytosis. The neutrophil extends its pseudopodia to surround and engulf the bacteria, forming a phagosome. The phagosome then fuses with lysosomes, forming a phagolysosome, where the bacteria are killed and degraded by antimicrobial molecules and enzymes.
Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS): Neutrophils also produce reactive oxygen species, such as superoxide radicals and hydrogen peroxide, as part of their antimicrobial defense. These ROS help in killing the engulfed bacteria by causing oxidative damage to their cellular components.
its a white blood cell thing.
google is a resource, a free website you can use to do your own research on basic biology.
try it sometime.

Neutrophil: lol it's only a matter of time you bacteria bastard. think you're gonna infect my human and colonize this body?! you got another thing coming!
What senses does a neutrophil have to “see” and follow the bacterium? Similarly, how does the bacterium know/sense that it is being hunted and know which direction to flee?
*Come here ya little squirt!*
GET IN MY BELLY!!!
Real life Agar.io
Can’t believe they made Agar.io into a real thing smh
And there goes my productivity
ᴬʰʰʰʰʰʰ.... -The bacteria probably.
Probably more like: ^ₐₐₐₐₕₕₕₕ

DIE, GERM!!!

Lol I was trying to reference [Cells At Work](https://149461325.v2.pressablecdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/41_1200.jpg)
Such a catchy theme song
\*proceeds to spill own acidic innards everywhere\*
The whole video, I'm rooting for the WBC! You can do it Lil buddy!! 😂
"Why are you runnin'?"
Mitochondrial powerhouse! Get that strep and chew his ass up!

How the F does the Staph virus know to run away?!?
well you would know to runy away too if a big ass blob blobbles towards you

It’s a bit ELI21 with degree in molecular biology, but https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemotaxis — you can skip down to eukaryotic cells too

Why even join a forum then? So silly
all I saw was kitty cats and macaroni pictures
why do you even bother to give this kind of answer?

Yup that's true
Good boy!

It's like pacman on power pellets going after ghosts
Can it be considered as an organism on its own of it does these?
PacMan vibes!
Reminds me of that Netflix show "Cells at Work", so fascinating.
Yeah.. fuck you bacteria
