What immuiuntity is provided by gamma globulin?
gamma globulin are the antibodies which provide natural active acquired immunity produced by B plasma cells.
What is known as the immunity provided by the T-lymphocytes effective against fungi parasites interacellular viral infectons cancer cells and foreign tissure implants?
The immunity provided by T-lymphocytes is known as cell-mediated immunity. This immune response is crucial for targeting and eliminating infected or abnormal cells, including those affected by intracellular viral infections, fungi, and cancer. T-lymphocytes, particularly cytotoxic T cells, play a key role in recognizing and destroying these harmful cells, while helper T cells assist in coordinating the overall immune response. This form of immunity is essential for defending against a variety of pathogens and foreign tissues.
Explain why passive immunity is a temporary immunity?
Passive immunity is temporary because it involves the transfer of pre-formed antibodies from an external source, such as through breast milk or intravenous immunoglobulin. Since the recipient's immune system is not actively producing these antibodies, the protection provided is short-term and wanes as the transferred antibodies are broken down and eliminated from the body.
How are natural acquired immunity and artificial acquired immunity alike?
Natural acquired immunity is when your body already knows how to defend against certain antigens and germs. Artificial acquired immunity is provided in shots to the body when we are babys. These shots contain inactive or a weakened antigen or germ in order to allow are body to produce an anti-body to defend against them if we were to get infected in the future. This makes them alike because the way of defending against the antigens are the same. The only difference is that in artificial immunity are bodys are introduced to a foreign antibody in order for our body to "learn" to defend against it.
What is immunity proveded by antibodies being passed through the placenta or mother's milk?
Immunity provided by antibodies passed through the placenta or mother's milk is known as passive immunity. During pregnancy, maternal antibodies are transferred to the fetus via the placenta, offering the newborn protection against infections in the early months of life. Additionally, breast milk, particularly colostrum, contains antibodies and other immune factors that help bolster the infant's immune system and protect against pathogens. This type of immunity is temporary, as the infant's immune system gradually develops its own responses.
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 can antibodies be transferred from a woman to a fetus and a baby?
As found in Wikipedia Maternal passive immunity is a type of naturally acquired passive immunity, and refers to antibody-mediated immunity conveyed to a fetus by its mother during pregnancy. Maternal antibodies (MatAb) are passed through the placenta to the fetus by an FcRn receptor on placental cells. This occurs around the third month of gestation.[2] Immunoglobulin G is the only antibody isotype that can pass through the placenta.[2] Immunization is often required shortly following birth to prevent diseases such as tuberculosis, hepatitis B, polio, and pertussis, however, maternal antibodies can inhibit the induction of protective vaccine responses throughout the first year of life. This effect is usually overcome by secondary responses to booster immunization.[3] Passive immunity is also provided through the transfer of IgA antibodies found in breast milk that are transferred to the gut of the infant, protecting against bacterial infections, until the newborn can synthesize its own antibodies.[4] The Maternal Antibodies transferred have a half-life of approximately 14 days, and thus only have an effect for the first months.
Why do babies need vaccinations?
It is important to give children vaccines because in the womb babies receive special proteins called antibodies from their mother that help fight many serious illnesses but after his birth immunity gradually disappears and the baby needs outside protection against illnesses. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Babies that are breastfed from the beginning continue receiving antibodies from the mother (especially while she is still producing colostrum) that protect against the disease organisms she has been exposed to (or been vaccinated for) and developed immunity against. But vaccinations allow the baby to make its own antibodies without having to actually catch the disease, and these antibodies will last long after any provided from the mother have degraded and been lost..

What happens if a woman of childbearing age is found to have no immunity to rubella?
Women without immunity should receive immunization against rubella provided that they avoid pregnancy for a period of three months following immunization.
