Solution

The correct option is A True
The vaccine consists of dead and attenuated (harmless) microbes which when exposed to the body, creates a defence attack against the microbe and destroys it. In this process, a memory of this specific microbe is created so that when the same microbe attacks an organism next time, the immunity (strength to fight) is increased and microbe is killed much quickly.
