How can injecting a person with a killed-bacteria vaccine protect that individual from a disease?

A) The proteins of the killed bacteria remain in the body, and live bacteria later prey on them instead of live tissues.
B) The proteins of the killed bacteria bind with receptors in the body so that live bacteria can't bind with them later.
C) The proteins of the killed bacteria stimulate the production of antibodies, which can be utilized later in response to infection.
D) The proteins of the killed bacteria give the person a mild form of the disease, which conditions the body not to respond to later infection.
