?
What does the production of memory cells give?
Immunity
1 of 11
What is the primary IR?
When the non and specific IR occur (new antigen)
2 of 11
Why is the primary response slow?
Because there aren't many B cells that can make the antibody needed to bind to the antigen
3 of 11
What does the secondary response often do?
Gets ride of the pathogen before you show any symptoms
4 of 11
What is active immunity?
When you make your own antibodies (after being stimulated by an antigen)
5 of 11
2 types of active immunity?
Natural and passive
6 of 11
Active artificial?
When you become immune after catching the disease
7 of 11
Active passive?
When become immune after given vaccine of harmless dose of antigen
8 of 11
What is passive immunity?
Given antibodies made by a different organism
9 of 11
