question 40
receiving a flu vaccination is an example of:
a naturally acquired active immunity
b artificially acquired active immunity
c artificially acquired passive immunity
d naturally acquired passive immunity
Vaccination involves the introduction of weakened or in - activated pathogens (in the case of flu vaccine) to stimulate the immune system to produce antibodies. This is an artificial process (not occurring naturally in the course of an infection) and it leads to the body actively producing its own immune response. So it is artificially acquired active immunity.
