Question

Subunit vaccines produced by recombinant DNA technology are

A) administered in food
B) not at risk for carrying disease
C) composed of a subunit of the pathogen that has antigenic properties
D) both B and C
E) A, B, and C

Answer 1

Subunit vaccines produced by recombinant DNA technology are composed of a subunit of the pathogen that has antigenic properties.

Step-by-step explanation:

Subunit vaccines produced by recombinant DNA technology are composed of a subunit of the pathogen that has antigenic properties. These vaccines are made from one or a few components of the organism instead of the whole organism. They are safer than other vaccines because they contain only a single antigenic molecule and lack any part of the genome of the pathogen.
