1Which type of immunity is present from birth and does not require prior exposure to a specific pathogen?
A.Innate (natural non-specific) immunity
B.Acquired active immunity
C.Artificially acquired passive immunity
D.Herd immunity only
Explanation: Innate immunity is the body's non-specific defence present from birth (skin, mucous membranes, phagocytes, complement). It does not require previous exposure to a particular microbe. Acquired immunity develops after antigen exposure or antibody transfer.
2Immunity that develops after a person recovers from measles is best classified as:
A.Artificially acquired passive immunity
B.Naturally acquired active immunity
C.Innate immunity only
D.Naturally acquired passive immunity
Explanation: Recovery from natural infection stimulates the person's own immune system to produce memory cells and antibodies—naturally acquired active immunity. Passive immunity is transferred ready-made antibodies (mother to baby or injection of antiserum).
3A newborn receiving antibodies through breast milk is an example of:
A.Artificially acquired active immunity
B.Herd immunity
C.Naturally acquired passive immunity
D.Innate cellular immunity only
Explanation: Maternal antibodies in colostrum/breast milk give the infant temporary protection without the infant producing those antibodies—naturally acquired passive immunity. It wanes as maternal antibodies decline.
4Vaccination produces which form of immunity?
A.Naturally acquired passive immunity
B.Only innate barrier immunity
C.Artificially acquired passive immunity only
D.Artificially acquired active immunity
Explanation: Vaccines introduce antigen (weakened, killed, or subunit) so the recipient's immune system actively makes antibodies and memory cells—artificially acquired active immunity. Passive artificial immunity is giving ready-made antibodies.
5Under India's Universal Immunization Programme (UIP), which vaccines are given at birth (as early as possible)?
A.BCG, OPV-0, and Hepatitis B birth dose
B.Measles-Rubella and DPT only
C.TT and JE only
D.Rotavirus and PCV only
Explanation: National Immunization Schedule at birth (as early as possible): BCG (TB), OPV-0 (oral polio), and Hepatitis B birth dose (preferably within 24 hours for Hep B). Other vaccines start at later ages (e.g., 6 weeks).
6BCG vaccine primarily protects against severe forms of which disease?
A.Malaria
B.Childhood tuberculosis
C.Tetanus only
D.Viral hepatitis A
Explanation: BCG (Bacillus Calmette–Guérin) is given intradermally, usually on the left upper arm, to protect against severe forms of childhood tuberculosis. It does not prevent malaria, tetanus alone, or hepatitis A.
7How is Oral Polio Vaccine (OPV) administered?
A.Intramuscular injection in the deltoid
B.Intradermal injection only
C.As oral drops
D.Subcutaneous injection in the thigh
Explanation: OPV is given as oral drops. Inactivated polio vaccine (IPV/fIPV) is injectable. Class 10 healthcare students should know this route difference for UIP and Pulse Polio campaigns.
8What is the main goal of India's Pulse Polio Immunization Programme?
A.Eradicate measles only through annual injections
B.Replace all hospital antibiotics with vaccines
C.Screen every adult for latent TB yearly
D.Interrupt wild poliovirus transmission by mass OPV campaigns
Explanation: Pulse Polio is a mass immunization campaign using OPV drops on designated days to reach all eligible children and interrupt poliovirus transmission, supporting polio eradication. It complements routine UIP doses.
9Which statement best describes a key component of the Universal Immunization Programme (UIP)?
A.Free vaccination against selected vaccine-preventable diseases for eligible infants, children, and pregnant women through public health systems
B.Vaccines only for private paying patients in metros
C.Mandatory surgery before any vaccine
D.Only one lifelong vaccine dose for all diseases
Explanation: UIP provides free immunization against major vaccine-preventable diseases (e.g., TB, polio, diphtheria, pertussis, tetanus, measles-rubella, hepatitis B, Hib, and others as scheduled) via government health systems to eligible beneficiaries.
10Measles-Rubella (MR) vaccine in the national schedule is typically first given around:
A.At birth only
B.9–12 completed months of age (with later booster as scheduled)
C.At 16 years only
D.Only during pregnancy
Explanation: Under the National Immunization Schedule, the first MR dose is generally given at 9–12 completed months, with a second dose later in the second year of life as per current UIP guidance taught in the curriculum.
