What is the advantages and disadvantages of active and passive immunity?
Active Immunity -The body reacts by producing antibodies to fight the pathogen. The antibody levels in the blood will rise and the boy will also retain a memory of of how to make these antibodies if it comes across the pathogen again. This process provides long-term protection from many diseases.Passive Immunity -Advantage: gives immediate protection against the pathogen.Disadvantage : Immunity is short lived and if the person encounters the disease again at a later date, the body has no memory of developing antibodies itself. This type of vaccination is only used in a few cases to give quick protection when it is thought the person may already have the disease.
Are vaccines associated with innate or adaptive immunity?
Adaptive immunity. Innate immunity provides a very basic general response against pathogens. It responds in the same manner. Adaptive immunity will provide a very specific response as well as retain memory of how to respond next time it encounters the same pathogen. That is the foundation for vaccinations. You introduce to your body in a safe way (destroyed virus) a pathogen that your body can kill so that upon secondary exposure it is well equipped to defend against it.

Why does a vaccination provide long-lasting protection against a disease while gamma globulin provides only short-term protection?
With vaccination your body mounts an immune response to the pathogen. You learn what the pathogen looks like and make antibodies (gamma globulin) against it. You then get memory cells which can last a very long time and will let your body respond and fight off the pathogen the next time you are exposed. Gamma globulin is just an antibody that will circulate in your blood and and fight off the pathogens it was made against. You will not mount an immune response, and you will not get memory cells for long lasting protection.
