Naturally acquired passive immunity-IgG antibodies are transferred from mother to fetus across placenta, or IgA antibodies are transferred from mother to baby in milk during breast-feeding.
Naturally acquired active immunity-Following exposure to a microbe, antigen recognition by B cells and T cells and costimulation lead to formation of antibody-secreting plasmocytes, cytotoxic T cells, and B and T memory cells.
Artificially acquired passive immunity-Intravenous injection of immunoglobulins (antibodies).
Artificially acquired active immunity-Antigens introduced during vaccination stimulate cell-mediated and antibodymediated immune responses, leading to production of memory cells.
