उत्तर दाखवा आणि स्पष्टीकरण

उत्तर: (C) By introducing a harmless piece of SARS-CoV-2 virus

स्पष्टीकरण

Vaccines (mRNA, vector, protein, inactivated) expose the body to harmless viral parts so it makes its own antibodies.

    Wrong: most approved COVID vaccines are not live-attenuated.

  • (B) चूक

    Wrong: unsafe; not how vaccines work.

    Correct: they present a harmless antigen (e.g. spike protein or its code) to train immunity.
