Answer 1

The correct option is D Both (A) and (R) are correct and (R) is the correct explanaton for (A).

Vaccines consist of dead or inactivated pathogens that work to trigger the immune system and prepare it for the real attack. Since the pathogens are inactivated or dead, they do not cause serious health issues. Rather, on getting a shot of vaccine, individuals experience a mild fever that subsides in a couple of days.
