Negative phase is seen in ________ immunity?

Correct answer: A. Active

  • A. Active
  • B. Passive
  • C. Herd
  • D. Local

Explanation

The negative phase is classically described in active immunisation, when pre-existing antibody may temporarily fall or neutralise the injected antigen before the person's own antibody response develops. Passive immunity supplies ready-made antibody and does not typically show this immunisation pattern.
