Active immunity is acquired from vaccinations or from infection against a pathogen. The next time you encounter the same pathogen your body has built memory against it and will be able to fight it much more efficiently. Passive immunity is primarily through a mother to a baby or fetus. Through the placenta the mother transfers her immunity (IgG antibodies) to her fetus. Also through breast milk she can although the placenta is much more so. The baby has her/his immunity from the mother but it only lasts a few months because the baby hasn't developed his/her own immunity.

What type of immunity results from injection of tetanus toxoid?
Active immunity, specifically artificial active immunity, results from the injection of tetanus toxoid. This means that the body produces its own antibodies against the tetanus toxoid.
How are they different between active immunity and passive immunity different?
Passive immunity involves the bodies defenses which do not change for different types of microbes. This would be like Natural Killer B cells which attack a wide variety of microbes. Active immunity involves your body becoming acclimated toward a bacteria or virus, such that future contact will spur on a triggered response. An example of this would be the production of antibodies.
Type of resistance that is acquired as a result of developing a disease?
Naturally acquired active immunity is the type of resistance that is acquired from developing a disease. Naturally acquired active immunity leaves the person immune from developing the disease again in the future.
How active immunity is acquired through humoral response?
Active immunity through the humoral response occurs when B cells encounter antigens and differentiate into plasma cells that produce specific antibodies. These antibodies then circulate in the bloodstream and target the antigen for destruction. Memory B cells are also formed in this process, providing long-term immunity upon subsequent exposure to the same antigen.
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.
Which form of immunity is obtained by an attack of an infectious disease?
artificial active immunity
What type of immunity do immunization provide?
Active artificial.
What type of immunity results from injection of tetanus toxoid?
Active immunity, specifically artificial active immunity, results from the injection of tetanus toxoid. This means that the body produces its own antibodies against the tetanus toxoid.
What results in more long lasting immunity natural active or artificial active?
Natural active immunity typically results in longer lasting immunity compared to artificial active immunity. This is because natural exposure to a pathogen triggers a stronger and more diverse immune response, leading to the development of memory cells that can provide long-term protection against future infections.
What is meant by the term active immunity?
Active immunity is of two kinds: Natural active immunity: This is acquired when a pathogen enters the body and immune response occurs. This is stored by the memory cells and eliminates the pathogen for the second time as soon as it enters the body. Acquired active immunity: This artificial and it is induced through a artificial source like vaccines.
Getting flu shot to keep from getting flu is example of this type immunity?
artificial active
What type of immunity resulting from giving a vaccine?
ADAPTIVE immunity. Your body sees the pathogen, so it can be ready if it ever encounters it again.
Are vaccinations examples of natural passive immunity?
No, vaccinations are examples of artificial passive immunity. Natural passive immunity is passed from mother to infant either through breastmilk, or while the fetus is in utero with the transfer of antibodies from the mother through the placenta.
What is the source of passive immunity?
Passive immunity can be given naturaly or artificially.Natural Passive Immunity can be acquired from the maternal colustrum and maternal placenta.While artificial passive immunity is given parenteraly examples are: anti tetanus serum and antivenin.
When do you develop antibody after hepatitis B immunization?
Artificial active immunity. Artificial because it is due to vaccination. Active because the body is stimulated by the vaccine to produce antibodies against Hepatitis B virus antigen.
How does someone get artificial immunity?
a vaccination
Is the mothers breastfeeding milk - an active acquired immunity b passive natural immunity C passive acquired immunity D active natural immunity?
D. Active natural immunity. Breastfeeding provides infants with natural antibodies from the mother's milk, which helps to protect the baby through active immunity.
