Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -OPV produces antibodies in the blood (’humoral’ or serum immunity) to all three types of poliovirus, and in the event of infection, this protects the individual against polio paralysis by preventing the spread of poliovirus to the nervous system.
Detailed explanation-2: -Yes, the polio vaccine provides lifelong immunity.
