Match the vaccine type with the appropriate description: attenuated whole-agent vaccine, conjugated vaccine, inactivated whole-agent vaccine, nucleic acid vaccine, subunit vaccine, and toxoid. Be sure to include the question text with your answers.

Composed of an inactivated toxin; tetanus vaccine is an example:
Highly effective, but carries more risk of back-mutation into a virulent form:
Uses microbes that have been killed by formalin or phenol:
Newest vaccines, using naked DNA:
Use only antigenic fragments of a microorganism:
Polysaccharides combined with proteins; Haemophilus influenzae type b is an example:
