Q

This immunity can also be achieved through the use of immunoglobulins, which are purified forms of antibodies. Examples include anti-tetanus immunoglobulin and anti-rabies immunoglobulin.

A

API / Artificial Passive Immunity

17
Q

Involves the transfer of pre-formed antibodies from outside sources without the body’s own production

A

Passive Immunity

18
Q

There are two types of passive immunity

A

NPI and API

19
Q

the type of immunity that occurs when our own body produces antibodies in response to an ​antigen

A

Active Immunity

20
Q

There are two types of active immunity:

A

NAI and AAI

21
Q

An immunity occurs when an individual becomes infected with a pathogen and subsequently recovers

A

Natural Active Immunity

22
Q

During the infection, the immune system responds by producing specific antibodies to target the pathogen. Once the infection is resolved, the individual retains memory cells that can recognize and respond swiftly to the same pathogen in the future. ______ provides long-lasting protection against subsequent encounters with the same pathogen.

A

NAI / Natural Active Immunity

23
Q

Immunity is achieved through deliberate exposure to antigens (a foreign substance that enters your body).

A

​Artificial Active Immunity

24
Q

Vaccines contain weakened or inactivated forms of pathogens or specific components of pathogens, such as proteins or polysaccharides, which stimulate the immune system to produce a protective response. When the immune system encounters these antigens, it activates _____ cells and ___ cells, leading to the production of antibodies.

A

B cells and T cells

When the immune system encounters these antigens, it activates B cells and T cells, leading to the production of antibodies.

25
Q

Through vaccine this immunity also results in the creation of memory cells for sustained protection.

A

AAI / Artificial Active Immunity

26
Q

Occurs when antibodies are transmitted from mother to infant through breast milk, particularly the early form of milk known as colostrum.

A

NPI / Natural Passive Immunity

27
Q

This type of immunity is only short-lived and diminishes over time.

A

NPI

28
Q

The mother’s antibodies provide temporary protection to the newborn, helping to defend against infections until the infant’s immune system develops its own ability to produce antibodies.

A

NPI

29
Q

This immunity is achieved through the administration of ANTIBODIES (a protein produced by your immune system to attack and fight off these antigens) obtained from other individuals or animals.

A

API / Artificial Passive Immunity

30
Q

This is typically done in situations where immediate protection is needed or when an individual’s immune system is compromised. For example, antiserum refers to the blood-derived products that contain a high concentration of specific antibodies against a particular pathogen.

A

API

31
Q

These antibodies are often collected from individuals who have already recovered from the infection or have been immunized against it.

A

antiserum and immunoglobulins

32
Q

Examples of immunoglobulin-derived immunity include anti-tetanus immunoglobulin and anti-rabies immunoglobulin. What type of Immunity does it belongs to?

A

Artificial Passive Immunity

33
Q

This type of mmunity can also be achieved through the use of immunoglobulins, which are purified forms of antibodies.

A

API

34
Q

immunity involves the production of antibodies by our own immune system, either through natural infection or vaccination

A

AI

35
Q

relies on the transfer of pre-formed antibodies from external sources

A

PI

36
Q

naturally from mother to child

A

NPI

37
Q

artificially through the administration of antibody-containing products

A

API
