Students have asked these similar questions

Protection is given to children before they catch a disease. They are given an injection of virions treated with formaldehyde to make them unable to cause infection, the antigen remains intact. What type of immunity is this? natural active natural passive artificial active artificial passive

This type of immunity results from the recovery from illness (i.e. having pneumonia). naturally acquired active immunity artificially acquired passive immunity Onaturally acquired passive immunity artificially acquired active immunity

A process that involves macrophages and eosinophils bound to the stem region of antibody molecules, producing substances that damage large parasites (e.g., worms), is called: Naturally acquired passive immunity Antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity T-cell-mediated cytotoxicity Complement-mediated lysis None of the other four answers are the correct name of this process
