    TRUE

    depends on the cup alleles you have on whether it does something good or bad

  31. True/False: a phagolysosome is still a lysosome
    TRUE

    still a lysosome just has a phagosome  in it
  32. the respiratory burst uses superoxide which is created from
    NADPH being oxidize by NADPH oxidase and O2 being reduces to make superoxide
  33. what is the enzyme in the lysosome that helps covert H2O2 to OCl-
    Myelo-peroxidase
  34. The O2- spontaneously forms _____
    H2O2

    don’t need an enzyme for this (just adding electrons to O2-)
  35. H2O2 forms _____ with addition of ____ that can kill the bacteria
    OCl-

  43. True/False: NO is actually a free radical
    TRUE
  44. why does NO have to act in very short distances (autocrine and paracrine) rather than in the endocrine system
