What is immunity how can it be introduced in human?

Immunity is the body's ability to resist or fight off infections and diseases. It can be introduced in humans through natural means, such as through exposure to pathogens that trigger an immune response and the production of antibodies, or through vaccinations which stimulate the immune system to create a memory of specific pathogens to protect against future infections.


What is the resistance from an organism to disease is know as what?

Immunity.Depending on how an organism becomes immune to an INFECTIOUS disease, classifies the immunity into :Active/ PassiveNatural/ ArtificialActive immunity- the organism produced its own antibodies to the disease.Passive immunity- the organism was given antibodies to fight the disease (this type does not last.. so that if the organism is re-infected with the SAME disease...it is not resistant like previously)Natural immunity- the organism naturally was infected to develop active immunity or given antibodies (from mother's milk).Artificial- the organism was deliberately infected to develop active immunity or given extracted antibodies (probably produced from rat's spleen).

Exposure to a disease-causing organism results in which type of immunity?

What is active vs passive immunity?

Active immunity occurs when an individual is exposed to the disease causing organism, and the immune system produces antibodies to counteract the disease. Future exposure to the same pathogens will stimulate a rapid response from the immune system to produce antibodies. Passive immunity occurs when an individual receives antibodies instead of inducing the immune system to produce antibodies.
