An injection of gamma globulin containing antibodies or antitoxin would be an example of ________ immunity.
a. Artificially acquired passive
b. Naturally acquired active
c. Artificially acquired active
d. Naturally acquired passive

Respuesta :

Answer:

Option (A).

Explanation:

Artificial passive immunity can be acquired by injecting readymade antibodies. The antibodies are not produced by the recipient cells of the organism.

The injection of gamma globulin is artificially acquired passive immunity as these antibodies are injected directly into the body of the recipient. This immunity is  given to provide short term immunization to an individual organism.

Thus, the correct answer is option A.
