Answer:
The tissue or organ the microbes enter depends on the point of entry. For examples the microbes of tuberculosis enter through the nose and infect the lungs. If they enter through the mouth, they stay in the gut lining or enter the liver like viruses that cause jaundice.
Exceptions to this case is also seen where the microbes may have a different site of entry and reaches the tissue targeted for infection through the connective tissue like blood. For example, the Malaria causing microbe enters through the skin, invades the liver and then goes to the red blood cells.
