DochEvi [55]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Passice immunity

Explanation:

Breast milk, produced by female mammals (including humans), besides being rich in fat and protein is full of IgA. IgA is the immunoglobulin (immune system signal proteins) that is present in body secretions, such as milk.

The baby that is fed from the mother's breast ingests these defense proteins that allow it to tolerate different pathogens and toxins.  

It is considered passive immunity, as it does not generate memory and depends on a continuous dose to maintain defense levels.

It is remarkable that each of the over 200 cell types in the body interprets this identical information very differently in order to perform the functions necessary to keep us alive. This demonstrates that we need to look beyond the sequence of DNA itself in order to understand how an organism and its cells function.
