Question
- what is the term for the response to a second exposure to a pathogen after a vaccination? vaccine immune response antigen immune response primary immune response secondary immune response
Brief Explanations
- The primary immune response occurs upon the first exposure to a pathogen.
- After vaccination (which primes the immune system), a second exposure to the pathogen triggers a faster and more robust response. This is called the secondary immune response.
- "Vaccine immune response" is a less - specific and non - standard term for this specific second - exposure scenario.
- "Antigen immune response" is too general as antigens are what trigger immune responses in general, not specifically for the second - exposure after vaccination.
