If a pathogen on food got past saliva, which additional defenses in the first line of defense would the pathogen contact?
A. lymphocytes and phagocytes

D

Explanation:

Lymphocytes are the second line of defence

First line of defence indiscriminately defends against all pathogens unlike secondary response which is targeted. First line of defence refers to the external body components like skin, secretions from the body in the alimentary canel

Mucus traps pathogens. Stomach acid kills pathogens

it's the release of intestinal gas, which forms as a result of digesting food. when partially digested carbs reach the colon, bacteria convert part of that food into hydrogen and carbon dioxide gasses. you cant stop the stink, its a gas that comes naturally.
