Passive immunity is the transfer of active humoral immunity in the form of readymade antibodies, from one individual to another. Passiveimmunity can occur naturally, when maternal antibodies are transferred to the fetus through the placenta, and can also be induced artificially, when high levels of human (or horse) antibodies specific for a pathogen or toxin are transferred to non-immune individuals. Passive immunization is used when there is a high risk of infection and insufficient time for the body to develop its own immune response, or to reduce the symptoms of ongoing or immunosuppressive diseases.
Artificially acquired Active- vaccines (active or live viruses that are lifelong immunity) Artificially acquired Passive - gamma globulin injection that is temporary (used for overseas trips)
The four types of immunity are innate immunity, adaptive immunity, passive immunity, and active immunity. Innate immunity is the body's first line of defense, providing immediate but non-specific protection against pathogens. Adaptive immunity develops over time and involves a specific response to pathogens, including the production of antibodies. Passive immunity involves the transfer of antibodies from one individual to another, such as from mother to child, while active immunity refers to the immune system's response to a vaccine or infection, leading to long-lasting 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.
Passive.
Osmosis is an example of Passive Transport.
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.
Passive immunity because the antibodies pass from mother to fetus.
passive
antitoxin
active immunity is the immunity that is stimulated internally as a a result of antibodies entering the body. Passive is stimulated by substances from an external source
The three types of immunity is innate immunity, adaptive immunity, and passive immunity.
Passive immunity happens when the antibody is already given to you. For example, the antibody that can be passed from mother to child. That is a natural passive immunity. The vaccine given to you when had rabies is also an example of passive immunity because again, what is given to you is already an antibody.

D. Active natural immunity. Breastfeeding provides infants with natural antibodies from the mother's milk, which helps to protect the baby through active immunity.
The mother's breast milk provides passive natural immunity to the baby. This means that the baby receives antibodies from the mother through the breast milk, offering temporary immunity protection until the baby's immune system is more developed.
Natural passive immunity can be reached through the passing of mother's antibodies through the placenta or through milk during breastfeeding. These types of passive immunity only last for about 3 months after birth. Artificial passive immunity can be reached through intravenous injection of antibodies.
