Answer:

Artificial Passive Immunity

Explanation:

Passive immunity  is the type of immunity an individual can develop when the individual receives antibodies produced by another individual or elsewhere, rather than being produced by the individual’s immune system, against a particular disease. This type of immunity provides immediate protection but does not last for long.

Passive immunity can be achieved naturally by an individual when antibodies are passed through breast milk or placenta of the mother at birth to the individual.  

Artificially, passive immunity can be achieved when an individual receives antibodies produced from an external source rather than from the individual’s body immune system, usually through an injection in the form of “gamma globulin”.

The more he smokes everyday, the higher chance he could get the disease.  Just to be sure, you might want to do tests for lung and heart disease. The coughing up blood might be a the result of smoking. It really depends on his state of shape and all of that stuff.


Have a lovely day! ~Pooch ♥
