<h2>Immunity </h2>

Explanation:

Immunological memory of adaptive immunity ensures that vaccination effectively prevents disease

  • When the adaptive immune system is exposed to a new threat, the specifics of the antigen are memorized so we are prevented from getting the disease again
  • The concept of immune memory is due to the body’s ability to make antibodies against different pathogens
  • A vaccination against a virus can be made using either active, but weakened or attenuated virus, or using specific parts of the virus that are not active
  • Both attenuated whole virus and virus particles cannot actually cause an active infection, they mimic the presence of an active virus in order to cause an immune response, even though there are no real threats present
  • By getting a vaccination, one is exposing the body to the antigen required to produce antibodies specific to that virus, and acquire a memory of the virus, without experiencing illness

DNA<br>"Deoxyribonucleic<br>Acid"​
Zarrin [17]

Answer:

Details about DNA are given in the explanation section. Hope it will be helpful for you.

Explanation:

DNA, or deoxyribonucleic acid, is the hereditary element in humans and almost all other organisms. Nearly every cell in a person’s body has the same type of DNA. Most DNA is found in the cell nucleus (nuclear DNA), but a small quantity of DNA can also be found in the mitochondria (mitochondrial DNA or mtDNA).

The information in DNA is stored as a code made up of four chemical bases: adenine (A), guanine (G), cytosine (C), and thymine (T). Human DNA consists of about 3 billion bases, and more than 99 percent of those bases are the same type in all people.

DNA bases pair up with each other, A with T and C with G, to form units that are called base pairs. Each base is also attached to a sugar molecule and a phosphate molecule.  A base, sugar, and phosphate are called a nucleotide. Nucleotides are arranged in two long strands that form a spiral called a double helix.

A valuable feature of DNA is that it can replicate, or make copies of itself. Each strand of DNA in the double helix can serve as a pattern for duplicating the sequence of bases.
