Question

Which of the following type of immunity is present at the time of birth and is a non-specific type of defence in the human body?

• A. Innate Immunity
• B. Cell-mediated Immunity
• C. Humoral Immunity
• D. Acquired Immunity

Hint:

Innate = Born with it. Acquired = Develops after exposure.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Innate immunity is the body's first line of defense, present from birth. It's non-specific, meaning it doesn't target particular pathogens but provides a general defense against a wide range of threats. Acquired immunity (including cell-mediated and humoral immunity) develops after exposure to specific antigens.
