Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Becuase fom a vaccine you are recieving antibodies by another animal or human donor.

D is unlinkely since it describes how the mother is nursing the baby, so nothing directly mentioning of the baby recieving any antibodies. The other options also talk about how the body creates its own antibodies, which isn't passive immunity.
