Answer :
Active immunity provides resistance by actively participating in producing memory b cells and t cells after being exposed to an antigen.
What is active acquired immunity?
It is the reaction of the immune system to produce antibodies when exposed to a disease-causing organism. It is a lifetime immunity (long-lasting immunity). But it is slow and takes time to show its fully effective response.
It is of two types
Natural active immunity:
It is developed from the exposure of an organism causing disease through natural infection.
Ex: lifetime immunity acquired by an individual after recovering from infections like smallpox, chicken pox, etc.
Artificial active immunity:
The immunity developed by an individual due to the inoculation of weakened antigens into the body.
Ex: immunity develops due to vaccination.
During a primary immune response, it produces effector cells and long-lived memory cells. Memory B and T cells are antigen-specific and on encountering antigen again they show a more rapid and effective immune response known as a secondary immune response.
Hence active acquired immunity is an immunity that was acquired during a lifetime and produces memory b and t cells after being exposed to antigen.
