Hello, Can you please help me with a brief summary of the next video and say why this is significant. Can you include please in the  summary a description of  cell-mediated immunity, antibody-mediated immunity, active immunity, and passive immunity. The video name is: Types of immune responses: Innate and adaptive, humoral vs. cell-mediated from khanacademy. https://www.khanacademy.org/science/biology/human-biology/immunology/v/types-of-immune-responses-innate-and-adaptive-humoral-vs-cell-mediated Thank you in advance!
Acquired or adaptive immunity can be divided in to Natural Active, Natural Passive, Artificial Active, and Artificial Passive Immunity. Which types will lead to long lasting immune protection? Which will provide short term protection?
