The immune response to helminthic worm infections in the gastrointestinal tract requires specialized mechanisms due to the fact that helminths are too large to be ingested and destroyed by phagocytes. For example, cytokines made by TH2 cells elicit responses from multiple non-hematopoietic cell types that aid in parasite expulsion. Name two of these cell types and for each of them, their response to TH2-produced cytokines.
Observed Significance Level
The probability of observing the given result, or one more extreme, by chance if the null hypothesis is true. It is often denoted as the p-value.
Probability Density Function

Test Statistic
A numerical value computed from a statistical test's sample data, used in hypothesis testing to determine whether to reject the null hypothesis.
