1.+ What is the function of the spike protein on the corona virus?T
2.+Which of the two vaccines uses DNA rather than MRNA as the mode of stimulating the
immune system?T
3.+With respect to the MRNA vaccine, what must be done with the RNA to insure it makes
it into cells once it is injected?T
4.+ThelJ & J vaccine is described as a viral vector vaccine. -What does this term "viral-
vector" mean?T

doing what?T
6.-Both killer T-cells and B cell antibodies are part of the body's response to the
vaccination. -How do each of these offer protection from the corona virus once is
vaccinated?-In other words, what will they do in corona virus enters the body?T
7.+Over time after vaccination-it is known that antibody and-killer T-cells populations will-
decline but this will not necessarily mean the loss of immunity. Why not?T
