Solution

The correct option is A Monoclonal antibodies

Monoclonal antibodies (Mabs) are a class of medicine that are proteinaceous in nature, prepared inside the lab and produced in bulk quantity in factories having fully sterilized facilities. They are also called designer antibodies because they are created or tailor-made for specific diseases to be treated.

Infection in a body leads to the development of natural active immunity, whereas in vaccination weakened pathogens are introduced inside the body of an individual thus triggering the immune response.

Skin is the first line of defence of innate immunity which is present from birth; this is a type of physical barrier that can prevent the entry of microorganisms inside the body.
