The geosphere includes the rocks and minerals on Earth â from the molten rock and heavy metals in the deep interior of the planet to the sand on beaches and peaks of mountains. The geosphere also includes the abiotic (non-living) parts of soils, and the skeletons of animals that may become fossilized over geologic time.
Four types of vaccines are currently available: 1  Live virus vaccines use the weakened (attenuated) form of the virus. 2  Killed (inactivated) vaccines are made from a protein or other small pieces taken from a virus or bacteria.  Toxoid vaccines contain a toxin or chemical made by the bacteria or virus.
In addition to live, attenuated vaccines, the immunization schedule includes vaccines of every other major typeâsee the table above for a breakdown of the vaccine types on the recommended childhood schedule.The different vaccine types each require different development techniques.ive, Attenuated Vaccines. Attenuated vaccines can be made in several different ways. Some of the most common methods involve passing the disease-causing virus through a series of cell cultures or animal embryos (typically chick embryos).
