Question

Answer 1

Answer:

Resistance against the small pox

Explanation:

This is the classical work done by Edward Jenner.

Small pox and cow pox share the similarity in the structure hence the antibodies which are produced for the cow pox will work against the small pox.

Edward Jenner is known as father of immunology and based on this classical experiment name VACCINE is given where vacca indicates the cow.
