Unlike active immunity, this type of immunity does not involve the host's immune system producing its own antibodies.
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.

What is an example of acquired immunity?
An example of acquired immunity is the immune response generated after receiving a vaccine. When a person is vaccinated, their immune system is exposed to a harmless form of the pathogen, allowing it to produce specific antibodies and memory cells. This prepares the body to recognize and respond more effectively to the actual pathogen in the future, providing long-term protection against diseases such as measles or influenza.
What is naturally acquired immunity?
Naturally acquired active immunity means that you have contracted the disease and your body has developed immune defenses against the disease. An example if when a person gets Chickenpox- the body has memory cells which functions to produce an immune response when it recognizes the same virus later on. The immunity for chicken pox is usually lifetime.
