    The document describes the differences between innate immunity, adaptive immunity, humoral immunity, and cell-mediated immunity. Innate immunity refers to antigen-nonspecific defenses that activate immediately upon exposure to microbes. Adaptive immunity involves antigen-specific responses that take days to become protective against specific antigens. Innate immunity is present from birth and provides the initial response against microbes. Adaptive immunity develops over one's lifetime through exposure to antigens.
