active immunity

Explanation:

Active immunity is the form of acquired immunity in which the body produces its own antibodies against infections. When infectected by a bacterial infection that had happened before, one will not become seriously ill. This is because memory cells are able to recognise the antigens and stimulate the immune system to produce antibodies against the pathogens.
