ACQUIRED THROUGH EXPOSURE. ACTIVATES THE PRODUCTION OF ANTIBODIES OF IMMUNOCOMPETENT INDIVIDUAL. | ACTIVE IMMUNITY |
TYPE OF ACTIVE IMMUNITY THAT IS EXPOSURE TO NATURAL INFECTION OR REGULAR SERIES OF INFECTIONS. EX. COLDS, WOUND, COUGH | NATURAL-ACTIVE IMMUNITY |
TYPE OF ACTIVE IMMUNITY THAT IS EXPOSURE TO HUMAN-MADE ANTIGENS. EX. VACCINATION | ARTIFICIAL- ACTIVE IMMUNITY |
TYPE OF HUMORAL-MEDIATED IMMUNITY THAT IS ACQUIRED WHEN A PERSON IS GIVEN ANTIBODIES RATHER THAN PRODUCING THEM BY HIS/ HER OWN IMMUNE SYSTEM. | PASSIVE IMMUNITY |
TYPE OF PASSIVE IMMUNITY THAT IS ACHIEVED THROUGH TRANSFER OF ANTIBODIES FROM MOTHER TO BABY. EX. BREASTFEED, MATERNAL PLACENTAL CIRCULATION | NATURAL- PASSIVE IMMUNITY |
MOLECULES ASSOCIATED WITH GROUPS OF ANTIGEN THAT ARE RECOGNIZED BY CELLS FROM THE INNATE IMMUNE SYSTEM. | PATHOGEN- ASSOCIATED MOLECULAR PATTERNS (PAMP) |
