Answer 1

Answer:

OPTION B- SKIN KEEPS GERMS OUT OF THE BODY

Explanation:

The skin is your body’s largest organ and its most important barrier against infections. It’s your first line of defense in protecting internal tissues from harmful germs. When there’s a break in your skin, it’s easier for germs to get into your body and cause infection.

Mucous membranes, which form the moist, pink lining layer of the mouth, throat, nose, eyelids, urethra, vagina, and digestive system, also act as a partial barrier against infection. These membranes normally help protect us from germs in the air we breathe, our environment, and in our food and drink.
