B. Produce antibodies.
C. Release a toxin that kills pathogens.
What happens after the second time you are exposed to a pathogen?
A. The body will not be able to fight off the pathogen quickly, because it knows how to get into the body easier.
B. The body’s immune system will react the same was as it did during the first exposure.
C. The body can only be exposed to a pathogen a second time if you do not have a vaccine.
D. The body will know how to fight off the pathogen quickly, because memory cells have been created after the first encounter.
What are the differences between anaerobic and aerobic respiration?
A. Anaerobic respiration takes place in mitochondria, releases less energy and forms lactic acid that causes cramp. Aerobic respiration occurs in cytoplasm, releases more energy and forms carbon dioxide and water which do not cause cramp.
B. Anaerobic respiration takes place in cytoplasm, releases less energy and forms lactic acid that causes cramp. Aerobic respiration occurs in mitochondria, releases more energy and forms carbon dioxide and water which do not cause cramp.
C. Anaerobic respiration takes place in cytoplasm, releases less energy and does not cause cramp. Aerobic respiration occurs in mitochondria, releases more energy and causes cramp.
