Inclusion bodies are aggregates of stable substances like proteins in the cytoplasm. They are formed due to the multiplication of virus or bacteria in the host cell and can also be used for the diagnosis of the respective viral or bacterial disease. They also help in the storage of cellular metabolic products and are not membrane-bound.

So, the incorrect statement is 'These are involved in ingestion of food particles'.
