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”.

Answer:

This indicates that the expression of genes depends partly on environment.

Explanation:

The case shown in the question is showing a situation where there was a genetic interaction with the environment, resulting that gene expression depends in part on the environment.

Gene and environmental interactions are revealed by penetrance and expressiveness. Penetrance is the percentage of individuals with a given gene that have a phenotype linked to this gene, such as children and parents who have the same height. In cases of penetrance, a genotype may not express the expected phenotype due to gene influences and environmental effects, as happened to the couples' children shown in the question.
