The correct option is D. This is because, mucus, inflammation and fever perform different functions in the immune system.The mucus membrane produces mucus which traps microbes. Inflammation refers to a localized tissue response which occurs when a tissue is damaged. Fever inhibits bacterial growth and speed up the rate of healing of a damaged tissue.
