Question

A person who recovers from measles, for example, is protected for life against measles by the adaptive immune system.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A True

The adaptive responses are highly specific to the particular pathogen that induced them. They can also provide long-lasting protection. A person who recovers from measles, for example, is protected for life against measles by the adaptive immune system, although not against other common viruses, such as those that cause mumps or chickenpox.
