enzyme
what factors affect enzymes

what tests for starch
lugol’s test
what tests for simple sugar
benedict’s test
what breaks down proteins into pepsin
protease
what is the breakdown of large fat droplets into small fat droplets
emulsification
what catalyzes the breakdown of fats
lipase
what is breaking large chunks of food into smaller particles, occurs in mouth and stomach
physical/mechanical digestion
uses enzymes to breakdown large molecules into small molecules occurs in stomach, mouth, and small intestine
chemical digestion
uses Helper T cells, targets infected cells and cancerous cells
cell-mediated immunity
uses B cells, targets intracellular pathogens
Humoral immunity
Very specific, has memory, not limited to infection site, can ben cell mediated or humoral
adaptive immunity
substance that provokes an immune response
antigen
blood protein produced in response to a specific antigen
antibody
ingests antigens and presents them to Helper T cells, Helper T cells activate B cells to produce antibodies
B Lymphocytes
cell that ingests pathogen, breaks it down, and presents the broken fragments on its surface (macrophage, dendritic cells, and B Lymphocytes)
antigen presenting cell
effector cells and memory cells require an APC – Helper T, Cytotoxic, Regulatory, and Memory

what tissue is the trachea
