Answer» The two types of immunity a human baby is born with are innate and passive/acquired immunity. Innate immunity is a non-specific type of defence that provides barrier to the entry of antigens. Passive immunity is a pathogen-specific type of defence in which readymade antibodies are directly given to protect body against foreign agents. The foetus receives antibodies through the placenta. |
