Following are the difference between the two kind of immunity present in our body.

Although immunity present in an individual can be broadly classified as Innate immunity and the Adaptive immunity, there are two other major classification within these adaptive immunity, which are referred as natural versus acquired one.

The natural immunity can be understood from the referred name itself, that is an individual can have these kind of immunity by means of natural way without having any kind of special attention to improve the body immunity. These type of immunity is actually gained in the human body during the time of breast milk feeding and day to day exposure to external environment with infecting micro organism. By these two way the human can develop antibody naturally without any external infusion or intake. So the major thing that make the difference of these two kind of immunity is based on the production of "Antibody".
On the other hand the acquired or artificial one is occurred through manual infusion of antibody from any kind of extract or artificially infecting the human body with harmless micro organism and causing the human body to develop some kind of immunity against it. In these process the body doesn't form the antibody without any stimulus, but the stimulus had been made artificially. Therefore these are considered as an artificial one.
