Which of the following lymphatic vessels drains into the right lymphatic duct?

A. Autoimmunity is a malfunction of the immune system where the body attacks its own tissues — it is not a type of protective immunity acquired through infection or exposure.
B. Species immunity refers to natural resistance to certain diseases that affect other species (e.g., humans not being susceptible to some animal viruses), not immunity acquired through infection.
C. Passive immunity involves receiving antibodies from another source (like from mother to baby or via antibody-containing injections) and does not require the immune system to produce its own response.
D. Active immunity is the correct answer. It develops when the body is exposed to a pathogen or its toxins and responds by producing its own antibodies and memory cells, providing long-term protection.

A. Naturally acquired active immunity occurs when the body is exposed to a pathogen, and the immune system produces its own antibodies in response. This type of immunity is not related to the transfer of antibodies from mother to fetus.
B. Artificially acquired active immunity involves vaccination, where the immune system is exposed to a weakened or inactivated pathogen to stimulate an immune response. This does not involve the transfer of antibodies from the mother.
C. Artificially acquired passive immunity involves the transfer of antibodies through medical interventions, such as antibody injections or serum treatments. While this involves passive immunity, it is not naturally occurring, nor is it related to placental transfer.
D. Naturally acquired passive immunity refers to the transfer of antibodies from mother to fetus through the placenta. These antibodies provide temporary protection to the newborn against infections, and this process is a natural example of passive immunity.
