You just ate a piece of corn on the cob, which is basically carbohydrates and undigestible material. Now you are going to describe what happens to that food until it exits the body by indicating digestive processes and the structures that make it happen.
List the physical pathway from the mouth to the the point it leaves the body, that form the GI tract, include valves.
What are the accessory structures located along the pathway?
What are the digestive processes that occur at each point along the pathway?

1. What are the risks and benefits of using recombination to generate new receptors on the developing T and B cells?
2. There is a certain symmetry about B and T cell development. In each case there is a chain that undergoes VJ recombination and one that does V(D)J recombination. Do you have any thoughts about why this might be?
3. When antigen is recognized the system develops Effector and Memory cells. Why do you think we have immunological memory? What is it about human life history (and more generally vertebrates) that makes this important?
4. What are the tradeoffs in vaccine use? How do they change when the prevalence of disease changes?

B) aerobic activities should be done at least 3 days/week if vigorous intensity
C) individual can combine moderate and vigorous intensity aerobic activities 3-5days/week
D) aerobic activities should be done at least 5 days/week if moderate intensity.
