Answer to Question 1

Answer: The two types are naturally acquired immunity and artificially acquired immunity. The former is acquired by having had a disease and surviving it. The latter is acquired by introducing pathogens of a disease (or parts of pathogens) into the body through a vaccine, which causes the immune system to fight them off and build up future immunity.
