What are the two ways that people can be immunized against specific disease?
passive and active immunity
What are two ways in which active immunity can be acquired?
Active immunity can be acquired through natural exposure to an infectious agent, which triggers the body's immune response to produce antibodies. It can also be acquired through vaccination, where the immune system is exposed to a weakened or inactivated form of the pathogen, leading to the production of antibodies without causing illness.
What are two kinds of immunity?
active acquired immunity and passive acquired immunity
What are two ways active immunity is produced?
1. mother to fetus2. Through exposure to the antigen(virus, toxins,or cancer cells).
What are the two kinds of immunity?
passive and active
How are different active and passive?
Active immunity is generated by your body. So you get active immunity as a result of infections or due to vaccines. Passive immunity is not generated by your body. Here the antibodies are to be supplied. Child gets the antibodies from mother. Alternately you get the antibodies via injections. The effect of active immunity is long lasting. The effect of passive immunity is short lived. So the active immunity is considered as better. The passive immunity has one advantage. It is available with immediate effect, while it takes about two to three weeks, before the effects of active immunity is available.
Which of the two types of immunity requires white blood cells?
Adaptive immunity requires white blood cells. These cells, including T cells and B cells, play a key role in recognizing and attacking specific pathogens to provide a targeted response to infections. Innate immunity, on the other hand, provides immediate, nonspecific defense mechanisms against a wide range of pathogens but does not require white blood cells for its function.
What is meant by the term active immunity?
Active immunity is of two kinds: Natural active immunity: This is acquired when a pathogen enters the body and immune response occurs. This is stored by the memory cells and eliminates the pathogen for the second time as soon as it enters the body. Acquired active immunity: This artificial and it is induced through a artificial source like vaccines.
What are two types of acquired specific immunity?
There is innate immunity (that you are born with) and acquired immunity. Acquired immunity you get when you are vaccinated or you get the disease and fight it off. The best example is that of what we call common colds. There are about 100 different viruses that cause them. This is one reason that babies and young children seem to be always be coming down with one or getting over one.
What are the 2 ways of earning profits from stock?
Interest and capital gain are two ways of earning gain from stock.
In what two ways do white blood cells work?
protect from bacterial infection increase our immunity
How is active immunity similar to passive immunity?
Both active and passive immunity provide protection against specific pathogens. Active immunity is developed by the body after exposure to a pathogen or through vaccination, while passive immunity is acquired through the transfer of pre-formed antibodies from another source. Both types of immunity are specific to the pathogen encountered or targeted by the antibodies.
