Detailed Solution
The principle of immunisation or vaccination is based on the property of ‘memory’ of the immune system. In vaccination, a preparation of antigenic proteins of pathogen or inactivated/weakened pathogen (vaccine) are introduced into the body. So it is artificially acquired immunity. Is is also active immunity as it develops in response to antigenic stimulus.
