👉 A phasmoid is a type of organism that consists of two or more distinct parts, often made up of different types of cells. These cells are known as phagocytes and are found in various parts of the body, including the gut, blood vessels, and organs such as the brain. Phasmoids play important roles in immune system function by engulfing and digesting foreign substances, and can also be involved in the regulation of blood clotting and wound healing.
