APHY 102 Midterm - IvyTech Questions and Answers Already Passed At any given moment, where can blood be found in the body? veins Compare an antigen to an antibody. Antigens are substances that provoke an immune response (they're the ultimate target for the immune system). Antibodies are simply proteins that are secreted as a result of the antigen provoked immune response. In short, antigens cause the disease and antibodies cure it. Compare and contrast glucagon and insulin Glucag...
