Solution

The correct option is C Basophil
Phagocytes have the ability to phagocytose or kill foreign cells and particles like pathogens by ingesting them. Many blood cells have this function, including monocytes, neutrophils and macrophages. Basophils do not have phagocytic activity.
Thus, the correct answer is 'Basophil.'
