Detailed explanation-1: -Two types of immunity exist-active and passive: Active immunity occurs when our own immune system is responsible for protecting us from a pathogen. Passive immunity occurs when we are protected from a pathogen by immunity gained from someone else.
Detailed explanation-2: -There are two types of immunity: innate and adaptive.
Detailed explanation-3: -Active immunity is often acquired immunity, meaning it must be obtained over the course of a person’s lifetime. This is different from innate immunity which provides basic, non-specific protection against pathogens.
Detailed explanation-4: -The passive form of artificial immunity involves introducing an antibody into the system once a person has already been infected with a disease, ultimately relieving the present symptoms of the sickness and preventing re-occurrence.
