What Immunity results when antibodies produced in another animal are introduced into your body?

What is it called when you are protected from a disease even when exposed to it?
Most commonly, immunity: "a state of having sufficient biological defenses to avoid infection, disease, or other unwanted biological invasion." (Wikipedia). Immunity is naturally acquired (via exposure or maternally-transferred antibodies in utero) or artificially required through the use of vaccines.
What is injecting antibodies from an animal to help prevent a disease from occurring in a human called?
inoculation?
Which cells are important in preventing a disease from recurring?
White blood cells produce antibodies to diseases. The antibodies enter the bloodstream and prevent a specific disease from recurring. One type of white blood cells, called B cells, manufacture and release the antibodies. Another type, called T cells, does the job of penetrating the infected cells so that the antibodies can do their work.

Where does coombs disease come from?A blood disease called autoimmune hemolytic anemia happens when antibodies destroy your own red blood cells faster than your body can make them. You can get it because of: Diseases like lupus and leukemia. Infections such as mononucleosis.
Macromolecule that is impoetant in disease defense and immunity?
Bacteria and other foreign invaders are attacked by the immune system via special proteins called antibodies. They work by binding on to corresponding sites on the pathogen called antigens. This works to neutralise the invaders by blocking its glycoproteins and marking it for destruction by macrophage white blood cells. Some larger antibodies can bind multiple pathogens together in a process called agglutination.
