What Immunity results when antibodies produced in another animal are introduced into your body?
This is called artificially acquired passive immunity. See link below:
What are the two components of specific immunity?
Humoral Immunity- acquired immunity in which the role of circulating antibodies is predominant. Natural Immunity- the resistance of the normal animal to infection
How do you acquire passive immunity?
You can get passive immunity through a placenta when you are a fetus in your mothers womb or you can be injected with antibodies that have most likely been forced to grow due to somebody putting a disease in an animal such as a rabbit. Unfortunately passive immunity does not last very long because the antibodies are detached from their white blood cells which keeps them a live and also stores the antibodies in their memory so you can not become immune forever via passive immunity as it is only passive e.g. short lived/quick
What is passive imunity?
Passive immunity is the transfer of ready-made antibodies from one individual to another. This can occur naturally, such as when a baby receives antibodies from its mother through breast milk, or artificially, through the administration of antibodies derived from another individual or animal to provide protection against a specific pathogen. The immunity provided by passive transfer is temporary and does not result in long-lasting protection.
How is active immunity similar to passive immunity?
Active immunity is long term protection that generally lasts 20-30 years and passive immunity is immediate protection. there are two forms, naturally acquired and artificially acquired. in active immunity the naturally acquired immunity is when you suffer from the disease then recover again. the artificially acquired way is by getting a vaccination. in passive immunity, the naturally acquired way is to receive antibodies from mother in pregnancy and breastfeeding, the artificial way is to have antibodies injected in a serum for immediate response for example when you have been bitten by a poisonous animal. note they are not vaccinated.
If you were to transfuse a person with plasma proteins from a person or an animal that has been actively immunized against a specific antigen would it provide active or passive immunity?
It would provide passive immunity because the recipient is not generating their antibodies against that specific antigen. Instead, they are receiving pre-formed antibodies from the plasma proteins of the donor, offering immediate protection.
What does a vaccine produce?
When a vaccine is given to an animal, the animal's immune system produces antibodies to fight off the disease. This way, if the animal is ever infected by the disease it was vaccinated against, the animal will either not get sick or not get as sick.
What is anti-venene made of?
Anti-venene is made by injecting a small amount of the venom in question into an animal. That animal produces antibodies to fight the venom. The blood of the animal is then drawn out and the antibodies extracted. These antibodies are the anti-venene.
Difference between anti sera and serum?
Antisera is blood serum containing antibodies against a specific antigen, used to treat or provide immunity to a disease. It is extracted from an animal that has immunity to a particular disease. Serum is the fluid obtained when whole blood is separated into its solid and liquid components after it has been allowed to clot. It is clear and yellow in color.
How does an animal acquire an active immunity to disease?
Active immunity to a disease is acquired either through getting the disease or being vaccinated for it.

What is an a b injection?
A B injection is a shot containing multiple B vitamins - the vitamins are innocuous to a healthy animal but can help support a diseased animal's immune system.
