Acquired immunity- a type of immunity that is not present by birth but is developed over a lifetime. It can be induced by exposure to a disease, a vaccine, or direct antibody administration.
The first encounter against a pathogen will generate an immune response and antibodies will be produced against the pathogen’s antigens. The antibodies produced will be used as memory in case of the second encounter that would help in the rapid proliferation of antibodies to fight against the organism on future encounters. The antibodies are produced by B cells while the T cells help the B cells in antibody production. The first response creates memory B cells that recognize the antigen and induce the production of those particular antibodies.
Thus, option "a" is the correct answer. Rest all options are incorrect.
