Immunity and Vaccination
  1. Types of Immunity
    1. Active
      1. Natural
        1. Immunity after catching a disease
        2. Artificial
          1. Vaccination
          2. Immune system makes it's own antibodies
          3. Passive
            1. Given antibodies by another organism
              1. Natural
                1. Baby receives antibodies from its mother through the placenta
                2. Artificial
                  1. Injected antibodies from someone else
              2. Autoimmune Disease
                1. This is when an organism doesn't recognise the antigens present on the organisms own cells
                  1. Causes an Immune response
                  2. Lupus
                    1. Immune system cells attack connective tissue
                      1. Causes inflammation and damage to joints
                      2. Rheumatoid Arthritis
                        1. Attacking cells in joints
                          1. Pain and Inflammation
                        2. Vaccines
                          1. Vaccines contain antigens which cause the production of memory cells
                            1. Prevents a person from experiencing symptoms of a disease
