Answer: Neutrophils exhibit pseudopodia.

Neutrophils flatten and squeeze between the endothelial cells of capillary walls as a response to stimuli and cell adhession molecules on the endothelial walls.

Step-by-step explanation:

Neutrophils are white blood cells that play major role in immune system. They circulate round the bloodstream and when they sense pathogens in the body, they move to the site and start killing the invading bacteria.

Neutrophils flatten and squeeze between the endothelial cells of capillary walls as a response to stimuli and cell adhession molecules on the endothelial walls.
