Answer:

tetanus toxoid.

Explanation:

Okay, things to note from the question above are: the medical student had four injections in or before she clocked 12 years of age.

The four injections given to the student when she was small should be FIVE instead of the four given for tetanus immunization and she should have been given a booster twice. Now, at 23 years old, is bitten by a mouse while performing an experiment. Sine she was not immunized against tetanus while she was young she should be given a tetanus toxoid.

Also, her wound should be closed since tetanus enters the body through a cut it say an open wound. The tetanus toxoid helps in the immunity against tetanus.

Answer:

A. Activated B - cells divide to form memory cells.

Explanation:

The vaccine contains the dead version of the respective virus, so that virus will be inactive and it will become easy for the WBC to kill it and antibodies will be formed.

This is done because if we get infected by the virus, our body cells (WBC) will remember that how they killed the first entered virus (the dead version) and it will be easy for them to kill the active virus as they know the antibodies which were formed to kill the inactive virus.

I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is the second option. It is the genes that is responsible for passing albinism from a parent organism to its offspring.

Which biome would be found primarily in the temperate zone? tundra desert savanna boreal forest deciduous forest?
Angelina_Jolie [31]
Both the deciduous (or temperate) forests and the boreal forests (taiga) can be found in the temperate zones of the world. Taigas are the largest terrestrial biomes. 

Both deciduous forests and boreal forests experience 4 relatively distinct seasons; however, the former experiences a wider temperature range with varied precipitation patterns, while the latter is relatively cold most of the time.

Deciduous or temperate forests consist of deciduous plants and trees, which means that they that shed leaves during autumn and remain inactive during winter (e.g. oak, maple, and ash), while boreal forests mostly consist of evergreen trees, primarily the conifers (e.g. pine, cedar, juniper, and redwood). 

The two figures below show the different (geographical or climate) zones, and the different biomes, respectively, found all over the world.
