Answer to Question 1

A vaccination is a procedure that injects a vaccine into the body. A vaccine is killed or attenuated bacteria or viral cells or cell fragments. The body produces antibodies and memory B lymphocytes specific to that pathogen. If the vaccinated patient encounters that pathogen again, the patient will have mild or no symptoms of the disease. Vaccinations are routinely used to prevent diseases that could be fatal or cause serious disability if contracted.

Answer to Question 2

This is done to remove red bone marrow from the hip bone to diagnose leukemia, lymphoma, and anemia. It examines the stages of blood cell development. This procedure is also done to harvest bone marrow from a healthy donor to give to a patient as a bone marrow transplant.
