Answer:

(C) subunit.

Explanation:

A vaccine is a substance derived from, or chemically similar to, a disease-causing infectious agent. Regardless of their nature, these substances are presented to the cells of the immune system, which learn to recognize and fight them during infection.

The polio vaccine is a subunit type vaccine. This type of vaccine contains fractions or subunits of the infectious agent, which in this case is the virus that causes polio, selected because of its ability to initiate a specific immune response.
