          3. Active
            1. Exposed naturally to infection
              1. Natural exposure to an antigen
              2. Exposed artificially to infection
                1. Been vaccinatated by form of antigen that is either weakened or dead so it does not make you sick but triggers an immune response
            2. Adaptive
              1. This class involves the production of T-lymphocytes
