Antivenom injection contains preformed antibodies while polio drops that are administered into the body contain
Activated pathogens
Harvested antibodies
Gamma globulin
Attenuated pathogens
To solve this problem, we need to understand the nature of the substances mentioned in the question and the options.Antivenom injection contains preformed antibodies. These are antibodies that are already formed and are introduced into the body to neutralize toxins, such as those from snake venom.Polio drops, on the other hand, are a form of oral vaccine. They contain attenuated pathogens, which are weakened forms of the virus that cannot cause disease but can stimulate an immune response.Now, let's analyze the options:Option 1: Activated pathogens - This is incorrect because vaccines typically use attenuated or inactivated pathogens, not activated ones.Option 2: Harvested antibodies - This is incorrect because polio drops do not contain antibodies; they contain a form of the virus.Option 3: Gamma globulin - This is incorrect in the context of polio drops. Gamma globulin refers to a class of proteins in the blood, which includes antibodies, but polio drops contain the virus, not antibodies.Option 4: Attenuated pathogens - This is correct because polio drops contain attenuated (weakened) forms of the poliovirus to stimulate immunity without causing disease.Therefore, the correct answer is Option 4: Attenuated pathogens.
