Administering a vaccine provides protection by inducing synthesis of antibodies (proteins) specific of the vaccine. The cell in the body responsible for the production of antibodies is

The correct answer is B. Lymphocyte.

Lymphocytes are a type of white blood cell that are responsible for the body’s immune response. They produce antibodies, which are proteins that help to fight off infection. When a vaccine is administered, it exposes the body to a weakened or inactivated form of a pathogen. This triggers the production of antibodies, which will then be able to recognize and fight off the pathogen if it is ever encountered again.

Granulocytes are another type of white blood cell, but they are not responsible for the production of antibodies. They are involved in the body’s inflammatory response and help to fight off infection
