Because Sydney received a measles vaccine, his immune system will most likely recognize the measles virus and be ready to fight it off. The measles vaccine contains a weakened form of the virus, which stimulates the immune system to produce antibodies against the virus. These antibodies remain in the body and can quickly recognize and fight off the virus if the person is exposed to it in the future. This is the purpose of vaccination - to prepare the immune system to respond to a particular pathogen if it encounters it later on. Therefore, option B is the correct answer.
