Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Antibodies in breast milk provide a specific type of immunity known as passive immunity. This is because the antibodies produced by the mother are transferred to the baby through breast milk, providing the baby with immediate protection against specific pathogens. Nonspecific immunity, on the other hand, provides generalized protection against a wide range of pathogens but does not target specific pathogens in the same way that antibodies do.
