HW: Venn Diagram – Passive and Active
Immunity
PATHOGEN
A
ANTIGEN
C B
ANTIBODY
1.Identify
structures A, B
and C.
2.Describe what
occurs when a
pathogen
enters the
body.
3.Identify what
produces
structure B.
4.What kind of
immunity
would this
provide?
Compare and contrast passive and
active immunity.
COMPARE
They BOTH help fight pathogens.
They BOTH involve antibodies and
antigens.
CONTRAST
Passive immunity is short-term.
Active immunity is long-term.
CONTRAST
Active immunity occurs when you
make your own antibodies.
Passive immunity occurs when you
RECEIVE antibodies.
CONTRAST
Vaccines are used to get active
immunity.
Vaccines CANNOT be used to get
passive immunity.
CONTRAST
You can get passive immunity from
your mother.
This is not true for active immunity.

How can • By your respiratory
diseases system
be
–Coughing or sneezing
spread?
–Chickenpox, a cold,
influenza, strep throat
• During sexual activity (STD’s)
–HIV/AIDS: breaks down the immune
system
• Direct and indirect contact
Noninfectious • Not caused by a
disease
pathogen
• CANNOT be
transmitted
• Allergies
• Cancer

• Arthritis
• Heart disease
• Diabetes
• Asthma
Identify one example of a noninfectious
disease that CAN BE PREVENTED.
• Heart disease
• Skin cancer
• Lung cancer
Identify one example of a noninfectious disease
that CANNOT BE PREVENTED.
• Breast cancer
• Leukemia (bone cancer)
• Prostate cancer
• Pancreatic cancer
Let’s summarize…:
1. Identify the type of disease that
can be transmitted or spread.
2. Identify the type of disease that
CANNOT be transmitted or
spread.
Infectious diseases are caused by
1. deficiencies in the diet
2. allergies
3. microscopic organisms that can be
transmitted from one organism to
another
4. malfunctioning organs
Resistance to a specific disease is
a(n)
1. antibiotic.
2. immunity.
3. white blood cells.
4. addiction
Once you have had the chicken pox,
it is unlikely that you will ever get
the disease again because your
body has developed a(n)
1. passive immunity.
2. addiction.
3. active immunity.
4. antibiotic.
An injection of a weakened virus
that allows one to develop
immunity against a disease is
called a
1. antibody
2. vaccine
3. epidemic
4. pathogen
Which of the following parts of
the body's defense system
seeks out and destroys
bacteria?
1. mucus
2. white blood cells
3. skin
4. red blood cells
Immunity that occurs when a body
makes its own antibodies is called
_________immunity.
1. Passive
2. Temporary
3. Shortened
4. Active
Infectious diseases are caused by
1. deficiencies in the diet
2. allergies
3. microscopic organisms that can be
transmitted from one organism to
another
4. malfunctioning organs
A person with AIDS is likely to develop
infectious diseases because the
virus that causes AIDS
1. destroys cancerous cells
2. damages the immune system
3. increases the rate of antibody
production
4. increases the rate of microbe
destruction
