Vaccines help prepare the body to fight invasion by a specific pathogen by priming the body's immune system to recognize, react and fight against that specific pathogen should it invade the body.

The initial exposure of the body to an infectious agent e.g. through a vaccine, triggers an immune response most of which rapidly diminishes after the vaccination.  However some cells of the immune system called lymphocytes remain with a memory of that pathogen.

As a result, if the same pathogen infects a vaccinated person, the memory cells remember and recognize it and rapidly spring into action triggering a much more rapid response specific to that pathogen than the initial exposure, effectively dealing and neutralizing the pathogen.

There are two different species of finch that live on the same small island, species A andspecies
frosja888 [35]

On the islands of the Galapagos lives a group of birds called finches. There are 13 species in this group. These species have diverse ecologies--some eat seeds, some eat insects, some eat fruit, and some even eat cactus. Although the bodies of these species look fairly similar, their beaks are very different. That is because it is their beak that is adapted to these diverse ways of feeding (Figure 8.14).
