HowDoes the Human Body Eliminate Dead Cells? The human body is a complicated
system which operates much like aself-contained city. Some organs produce new
cells, others use cells to performtheir jobs, and eventually certain scavenger
cells arrive to remove dead cellsfrom the system. In the case of the human body,
these scavengers are specializedwhite blood cells called macrophages.
Macrophages remove dead cells essentiallyby eating them, which helps to explain
why the word macrophage means "big eater"in Greek. Details at
