Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Vaccination results in the production of active artificial immunity, because it stimulates the body to produce its own antibodies against a particular pathogen. This is in contrast to passive artificial immunity, which involves the administration of pre-formed antibodies (such as immunoglobulins) to provide immediate protection against a pathogen. Active natural immunity results from exposure to a pathogen through natural infection, while passive natural immunity is the temporary transfer of antibodies from a mother to her offspring (such as through breast milk).
