Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Adaptive immunity: Adaptive (or active) immunity develops throughout our lives. We develop adaptive immunity when we’re exposed to diseases or when we’re immunized against them with vaccines. Passive immunity: Passive immunity is “borrowed” from another source and it lasts for a short time.
Detailed explanation-2: -Passive Immunization. Passive immunity to measles can be acquired through physiologic transfer of maternal measles antibodies from mother to child or by administration of immunoglobulin preparations containing measles antibodies to persons at risk of measles.
