How do vaccines protect an individual from disease?
A
They are antibodies
B
They trigger the creation of antibodies
C
They are white blood cells
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Vaccines contain weakened or inactive parts of a particular organism (antigen) that triggers an immune response within the body. Newer vaccines contain the blueprint for producing antigens rather than the antigen itself.

Detailed explanation-2: -Vaccines contain dead or weakened microbes of a particular disease. When a vaccine is introduced into a healthy body, the body fights and kills them by producing suitable antibodies. These antibodies remain in the body and protects it from the microbe when it invades the body again.

Detailed explanation-3: -The plasma cells produce antibodies (Y-or T-shaped molecules), which are trained specifically to attach to and inactivate the organism you are being vaccinated against. This response from your immune system, generated by the B lymphocytes, is known as the primary response.
