Not a line of defense
|
Detailed explanation-1: -The first line of defence (or outside defence system) includes physical and chemical barriers that are always ready and prepared to defend the body from infection. These include your skin, tears, mucus, cilia, stomach acid, urine flow, ‘friendly’ bacteria and white blood cells called neutrophils.
Detailed explanation-2: -Skin is a barrier that serves as one of the body’s first lines of defense against harmful microbes. Specialized immune cells within skin tissue help to fight invading organisms. Yet the skin hosts diverse communities of beneficial bacteria, collectively known as the skin microbiota.
Detailed explanation-3: -Immune System. Physical and chemical barriers form the first line of defense when the body is invaded. The skin has thick layer of dead cells in the epidermis which provides a physical barrier.
Detailed explanation-4: -The immune system has three lines of defence. The first line of defence is made up of barriers to prevent infection. The second line of defence is made up of responses to infection that apply generally to all pathogens. The third line of defence provides immunity against specific pathogens.
