Answer:

antitoxin

Explanation:

"Pathogens" are disease-causing bacteria, viruses or other microorganisms (fungi, parasites, and the like) that attacks the human body. They make the person sick by releasing <em>microbial toxins.</em>

There's actually a way to prevent such pathogens from causing serious illness to people and that is, with the help of antibodies like "antitoxins." This renders the toxins harmless by neutralizing them.

A specific type of antitoxin is made for a specific type of disease. For example, there's an antitoxin for measles and another antitoxin for flu.

Leviafan [203]

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.
