Innate immunity (also called nonspecific or natural immunity) refers to the inborn ability of the body to resist and is genetically transmitted from one generation to the next. This immunity offers resistance to any microorganism or foreign material encountered by the host.
It includes general mechanisms inherited as part of the innate structure and function of each vertebrate and acts as the first line of defense. Innate immunity lacks immunological memory, i.e., it occurs to the same extent each time a microorganism or foreign material is encountered.

Acquired immunity (also called specific or adaptive immunity) refers to immunity that's developed by the host in its body after exposure to an appropriate antigen or after the transfer of antibodies or lymphocytes from an immune donor.
Acquired immunity is very adaptive and is capable of specifically recognizing and selectively eliminating foreign microorganisms and macromolecules, i.e., antigens.

∙ 15y agowhen you are given a vaccine you are given dead or damaged pathogens (the microbes that cause diseases) and your body's reaction to these are anti-bodies, the antibodies make their mark in a way, they are in memory in your body so if you ever get the actual disease your body can fight it quickly and effectively. so your antibodies

Active immunity, as stated earlier, refers to an immunity in which there is active involvement of host’s own immune system leading to the synthesis of antibodies and/or the production of immunocompetent cells (ICCs).
There are two types of active immunity:
(i) Naturally acquired active immunity and
(ii) Artificially acquired passive immunity.

What does immunity have to do with vaccines?
Vaccines help the immunity systems to stay strong from particular diseases. In the immunity system carries microorganism that recognize the agents as foreign, destroy it and remembers it.
Do vaccines decrease immunity to the common cold?
No
What type of vaccine falls into the innate immunity?
Most live attenuated vaccines (influenza vaccines in humans, infectious bronchitis and Newcastle disease vaccines in chickens are types that activate innate immunity responses.
Are vaccines used to convey immunity to diseases?
Yes
What is are the ways of getting artifically acquired active immunity?
You can get it from vaccines.
Are all vaccines caused by antibody production and give lifetime immunity true or false?
False, because not all vaccines provide lifelong immunity. Some require boosters or reimmunization.
A vaccine provides?
Vaccines provides active immunity to certain diseases.
How did people develop immunity to a disease before the development of vaccines?
They acquired it by becoming infected but surviving the infection.
Is there ban on hpv vaccines?
There is no ban on HPV vaccines. In fact, in some states girls are required to receive HPV vaccines for school.
Do you develop passive immunity when you receive antibodies from another person?
Yes, passive immunity is developed when you receive antibodies from another person.
What do vaccines produce?
Immunity via the production of long lived memory lymphocyte cells in the immune system.
What type of immunity are antibodies given to a person?
Artificially acquired Active- vaccines (active or live viruses that are lifelong immunity) Artificially acquired Passive - gamma globulin injection that is temporary (used for overseas trips)
