Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the primary mechanism by which vaccines provide immunity?
  • Step 1: A vaccine is given to a person, usually through an injection.
  • Step 2: The vaccine contains weakened or inactive parts of a germ (antigens) that cause disease.
  • Step 3: The immune system recognizes these antigens as foreign invaders.
  • Step 4: The immune system responds by creating specific proteins called antibodies to fight the antigens.
  • Step 5: The immune system also creates memory cells that remember how to recognize and fight the germ in the future.
  • Step 6: If the person is later exposed to the actual germ, their immune system can quickly recognize and attack it.
