What is active acquired immunity?
Active acquired immunity occurs when you get an infection by a pathogen (bacteria, virus) and your body responds and removes the pathogen and also your body makes "memory" cells. These cell remember this pathogen and when it enters your body again you remove it immediately. You are now immune to it. You usually don't notice this.
What is meant by the term attenuated pathogen?
An attenuated pathogen is a weakened form of a disease-causing microorganism that is used in vaccines to stimulate an immune response without causing the full-blown disease. Attenuated pathogens are less virulent than their wild-type counterparts, reducing the risk of causing illness in vaccinated individuals while still eliciting a protective immune response.
What is an avirulent pathogen?
An avirulent pathogen is a pathogen that is unable to cause disease in its host. This may be due to mutations that have reduced its ability to infect or harm the host, making it less pathogenic compared to a virulent pathogen.
What does not contribute to the virulence of a pathogen?
There are infinitely many things that do not contribute to the virulence of a pathogen. Elvis does not contribute to the virulence of a pathogen.
What is the difference between an antigen and pathogen?
An antigen is a substance that can trigger an immune response in the body, such as proteins on the surface of bacteria or viruses.
