Immunity that develops when a person is purposely injected with a pathogen is called
artificially acquired active immunity.
Vaccinations are likely to lead to
artificially acquired active immunity.
Immunity that develops when a person is injected with antibodies is called

When the body begins to attack its own antigens, this is known as
autoimmune disease.
Patients with ______ should avoid the sun.
systemic lupus erythematosus
Having an infectious disease would mostly likely lead to
naturally acquired active immunity.
Immunity that develops when a person is exposed to an antigen in the environment is called
naturally acquired active immunity.
Immunity that develops when a mother passes antibodies to an infant through the placenta or breast milk is called
naturally acquired passive immunity.
Once a person has been exposed to an antigen, the subsequent exposure is referred to as a ______ response.
second
-IgA -IgD -IgE -IgG -IgM
-Found in secretions; prevents antigens from entering the body -Found on the cell membranes of B cells; thought to control B cells -Found with IgA; triggers allergic reactions -Recognizes bacteria, viruses, and toxins; can activate compliment -Binds to antigens on food, bacteria, and incompatible blood
