Which type of immunity is transferred from a mother to her baby through breast milk?

Explanation: Live attenuated vaccines use a weakened form of the pathogen that is still capable of replicating but does not cause severe illness in healthy individuals. This type of vaccine can provide long-lasting immunity with a single dose.

Incorrect choices:

a. Inactivated vaccines use killed pathogens, not weakened forms.

b. Subunit vaccines use only specific parts of the pathogen, not weakened forms.

d. Toxoid vaccines use inactivated toxins produced by the pathogen, not weakened forms of the pathogen itself.

Explanation: Active immunity. Active immunity is acquired when the immune system is exposed to a pathogen, either through natural infection or vaccination. It results in the production of memory cells that provide long-term protection against future exposures to the same pathogen.
Incorrect choices:

a. Passive immunity is acquired when preformed antibodies are transferred from one individual to another. It provides immediate but temporary protection and does not involve the production of memory cells.

b. Innate immunity is the body's first line of defense against infections and provides immediate, non-specific protection, but it does not involve the production of antibodies specific to a particular pathogen.

d. Acquired immunity is a general term that includes both active and passive immunity, but it does not specifically describe the type of immunity acquired through vaccination or exposure to a specific pathogen.
