Solution

The correct option is C Vaccination
The correct answer is 'vaccination'
  • Vaccination involves an injection of dead or weak microbes in a healthy body to invoke an immune response in these individuals so that memory cells are formed which prepare the body for any further encounters with the same microbe. The second response is so strong that in most cases the disease does not occur.
  • Medications are drugs used for treating a symptom or disease.
  • Antibiotics are drugs against common pathogenic diseases like bacteria diseases.
