Acquired Passive Immunity
B
Natural Immunity
C
Acquired Active Immunity
D
Cell-Mediated Immunity
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Cell-mediated immunity (CMI) is an immune response that does not involve antibodies but rather involves the activation of macrophages and NK-cells, the production of antigen-specific cytotoxic T-lymphocytes, and the release of various cytokines in response to an antigen.

Detailed explanation-2: -Cell mediated immunity works against intracellular pathogens while antibody mediated immunity works against extracellular pathogens. Furthermore, cell mediated immunity creates a delayed response, while antibody mediated immunity creates a rapid response.
