A number of vaccines against the SARS-CoV-2 virus (which causes COVID) are currently in use. Based on what you learned about the immune system and vaccines, this vaccine should provide immunity against this virus because:a Vaccines bind to the variable region of immunoglobulins, and prevent the antibody-antigen interactions required for the virus to be released from cells.b Vaccines elicit a primary immune response and resulting memory cells specific to the viral antigens can persist in the body c Vaccines block clonal expansion of helper T cells which are required for the virus to infect cellsd Vaccines block the production of cytokinese Vaccines induce cytotoxic T cells to produce antibodies specific to antigens on the virus

Question

A number of vaccines against the SARS-CoV-2 virus (which causes COVID) are currently in use. Based on what you learned about the immune system and vaccines, this vaccine should provide immunity against this virus because:

a		Vaccines bind to the variable region of immunoglobulins, and prevent the antibody-antigen interactions required for the virus to be released from cells.
b		Vaccines elicit a primary immune response and resulting memory cells specific to the viral antigens can persist in the body
c		Vaccines block clonal expansion of helper T cells which are required for the virus to infect cells
d		Vaccines block the production of cytokines
e		Vaccines induce cytotoxic T cells to produce antibodies specific to antigens on the virus
