Identify the wrong statement with reference to immunity.
When ready-made antibodies are directly given, it is called Passive immunity.
Active immunity is quick and gives full response.
Foetus receives some antibodies from mother, it is an example for passive immunity.
When exposed to antigen (living or dead) antibodies are produced in the host’s body. It is called Active immunity.
To solve this problem, we need to identify the incorrect statement regarding immunity. Let's analyze each option:Option 1: When ready-made antibodies are directly given, it is called Passive immunity. - This statement is correct. Passive immunity involves the transfer of ready-made antibodies to an individual.Option 2: Active immunity is quick and gives full response. - This statement is incorrect. Active immunity is not quick; it takes time to develop as the body needs to produce antibodies in response to an antigen.Option 3: Foetus receives some antibodies from mother, it is an example for passive immunity. - This statement is correct. The transfer of antibodies from mother to fetus is a form of passive immunity.Option 4: When exposed to antigen (living or dead) antibodies are produced in the host’s body. It is called Active immunity. - This statement is correct. Active immunity involves the production of antibodies by the host's immune system in response to an antigen.Therefore, the incorrect statement is Option 2: Active immunity is quick and gives full response.This corresponds to the correct option, which is Option 2.
