First, there are some amazing facts about mucus that are worthy of respect. Humans produce about a liter of mucus every day, whether they are sick or not. Bony fish and some invertebrates (snails or slugs) also have mucus cells on the outside of their body. This external mucus creates a protective coating that prevents predators' toxins from doing harm. Humans produce mucus to protect our stomachs, our lungs, and several other systems.

Welcome to QuestionCove (: 
To begin, the passage doesn't mention anything about slimy mucus or animals, so we can eliminate option D. Continuing, it doesn't really give the differences between external and internal mucus, so option A can be eliminated.

Now, we are left with options B and C. What are your thoughts on which could be the correct answer?
