Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Along with the tonsils, they form part of the ‘first line of defence’, which protects the body from infections. Airborne germs entering the body via the nose are filtered and trapped by hairs and mucous in the nose and then most are destroyed by antibodies and white cells made by the adenoids.
Detailed explanation-2: -Part of your immune system, your tonsils are like lymph nodes. They help filter out germs that enter through your nose or mouth to protect the rest of your body from infection.
