Q. A person likely to develop tetanus is immunised by administering:

A) Preformed antibodies
B) Wide spectrum antibiotics
C) Weakened germs
D) Dead germs
Explanation

[Solution from source] When a quick immune response is needed, as in a person at risk of tetanus after an injury, NCERT says preformed antibodies or antitoxin are injected directly; this is passive immunisation. Weakened or dead germs give active immunity, which takes too long to protect someone already exposed. Answer (1).
