Immunity can be gained actively or passively. When the antibodies to antigens are produced by our own bodies, we call it active immunity.

Solution

The correct option is B Aiii,Bi,Civ,Dii
When our immune system itself provides antibodies for the protection it is called naturally acquired active immunity and when the baby receives the immunity from the mother is called naturally acquired passive immunity similarly if we take a vaccine for a virus it's artificial but antibodies are produced by the immune system but in an emergency, anti-bodies are not made by the immune system but acquired from external source hence called artificially acquired passive immunity.
So the correct option is B.
