Solution
The correct option is B Both Assertion and Reason are correct but Reason is not the correct explanation for Assertion
Vaccination is preferably given in childhood so that liver and the immune system is able to make memory cells or at least familiarize itself with an antigen, whose later introduction would produce a faster response in the form of antibodies and aid in faster recovery and action against infection or disease. Child's resistance to diseases is weak, however, vaccination is given on contrary to build and strengthen immunity.So, the correct option is 'both assertion and reason are correct but reason is not the explanation for assertion'.
