Active immunity by Anna Sanders https://padlet.com/asanders34/activeimmunity1 In your group, research active immunity and create a collaborative mind map below to illustrate what it is. en-us 2018-12-06 17:10:07 UTC 2018-12-07 12:08:05 UTC hello@padlet.com immunity that results from the production of antibodies by the immune system in response to the presence of an antigen. https://padlet.com/asanders34/activeimmunity1/wish/312180664 2018-12-07 11:30:32 UTC https://padlet.com/asanders34/activeimmunity1/wish/312180664 Immunity that develops after exposure to a disease-causing infectious microorganism or other foreign substance, such as following infection or vaccination. https://padlet.com/asanders34/activeimmunity1/wish/312181024 2018-12-07 11:32:20 UTC https://padlet.com/asanders34/activeimmunity1/wish/312181024 https://padlet.com/asanders34/activeimmunity1/wish/312181146 An example of natural activity immunity is fighting off a cold. An example of artificial active immunity is building up a resistance to a disease due to an immunization. An allergic reaction is an extreme response to an antigen, resulting from active immunity.]]> 2018-12-07 11:33:01 UTC https://padlet.com/asanders34/activeimmunity1/wish/312181146 https://padlet.com/asanders34/activeimmunity1/wish/312181656
  • Cells involved in active immunity are T cells (cytotoxic T cells, helper T cells, memory T cells, and suppressor T cells), B cells (memory B cells and plasma cells), and antigen-presenting cells (B cells, dendritic cells, and macrophages).

  • Active immunity lasts a long time. It can endure for years or the entire life.
  • There are few side effects of active immunity. It can be implicated in autoimmune diseases and allergies, but generally doesn't cause problems.

In a similar manner, administration of two doses of hepatitis A vaccine generates an acquired active immune response leading to long-lasting (possibly lifelong) protection.]]> 2018-12-07 11:46:38 UTC https://padlet.com/asanders34/activeimmunity1/wish/312183500
