Vedclass · Answer

(B) Acquired immunity is pathogen-specific and is characterized by memory. When the body encounters a pathogen for the first time,it produces a primary response of low intensity. Subsequent encounters with the same pathogen elicit a highly intensified secondary or anamnestic response. Active acquired immunity involves the activation of the immune system to produce antibodies in response to antigens,which is a time-consuming process. Passive acquired immunity involves the direct transfer of ready-made antibodies,but the question specifically refers to the nature of the immune response development,which is characteristic of active acquired immunity.
