Actively acquired immunity refers to an immune response generated by the individual's own immune system, either through natural exposure to an antigen or through vaccination. Passive immunity, on the other hand, refers to the transfer of pre-formed antibodies from one individual to another. The transfer of antibodies via placenta or milk is an example of passive immunity, not actively acquired immunity.
