Biology

BlackZzzverrR [31]2 years ago
7 0

Explanation:

Vaccination is the administration of a vaccine to help the immune system develop protection from a disease. Vaccines contain a microorganism or virus in a weakened, live or killed state, or proteins or toxins from the organism. In stimulating the body's adaptive immunity, they help prevent sickness from an infectious disease. When a sufficiently large percentage of a population has been vaccinated, herd immunity results. Herd immunity protects those who may be immunocompromised and cannot get a vaccine because even a weakened version would harm them.[1] The effectiveness of vaccination has been widely studied and verified.[2][3][4] Vaccination is the most effective method of preventing infectious diseases;[5][6][7][8] widespread immunity due to vaccination is largely responsible for the worldwide eradication of smallpox and the elimination of diseases such as polio and tetanus from much of the world.

<em>The correct option is B) a mushroom appearing wet in the rain.</em>

In the option C, touch is the stimulus. The contraction of the protozoa is the response.

In the option D, the smell of food is the stimulus. Rumbling of the stomach is the response.

<em>In the Option B, no response is carried out by the mushroom. Hence option B does not show an action or response.</em>
