Review the types of example, the skin acts as a barrier to block germs
from entering the body. And the immune system
immunity (Start recognizes when certain invaders are foreign and
could be dangerous.
Module 1) Adaptive immunity: Adaptive (or active) immunity
develops throughout our lives. We develop adaptive
immunity when we're exposed to diseases or when
we're immunized against them with vaccines.
Passive immunity: Passive immunity is "borrowed"
from another source and it lasts for a short time. For
example, antibodies in a mother's breast milk give a
baby temporary immunity to diseases the mother has
been exposed to
Active immunity is usually permanent.Acquired
active immunity through exposure and infection with the disease or
artificially acquired through immunization.Onset is
a few weeks and usually last a lifetime
passive immunity A person is given antibodies to a disease rather than
produterm-61cing their own & it is short -term
immunity. ( Example Mother to baby).
This occurs when a significant portion of the
population is vaccinated and that provides a portion
herd immunity of immunity for those that have not developed
immunity. The population (herd) helps prevent
disease in the unprotected population. The herd
protects those who can not safely get vaccinations.
