What is active immunity?
-exposure to a disease organism triggers the immune system to produce antibodies to that disease. -long lasting, sometimes lifetime immunity
34
What is natural immunity?

35
What is vaccine-induced immunity?
introduction of a killed or weakened form of the disease organism through vaccination
36
what is passive immunity?
-Occurs when a person is given antibodies to a disease rather than producing them through his or her own immune system. A newborn acquires passive immunity from its mother through the placenta. Passive immunity can also be obtained through antibody-containing blood products such as immune globulin, which may be given when immediate protection from a specific disease is needed. This is a major advantage to passive immunity; protection is immediate, whereas active immunity takes time (usually several weeks) to develop. However, passive immunity only lasts for a few weeks or months.
