The difference between active and passive immunity is that your body produces antibodies in active immunity and in passive immunity, the antibodies are made outside the body. (D)

What is active and passive immunity?

Active immunity is a type of immunity that occurs when the immune system of a person is responsible for protecting them from a pathogen or from an infection.

Passive immunity is a type of immunity that involves the introduction of antibodies from another person or from outside the body of a person.

Antibodies are produced by an individual in active immunity but in passive immunity, antibodies are being transferred to an individual to help boost their immune system in fighting diseases.

Thus, the difference between active and passive immunity is that your body produces antibodies in active immunity and in passive immunity, the antibodies are made outside the body. (D)

The correct answer is D, white blood cells.
We know that red blood cells deliver nutrients and are not apart of the immune system; platelets are responsible for coagulation, which has nothing to do with the immune system, and plasma is a substance that, again, has nothing to do with immunity. White blood cells are the only things that fight disease (antibodies are white blood cells)!

I hope I helped!
