The ___________ is the first line of defense in the body.

Correct Answer

The skin acts as the first line of defense in the body. It serves as a physical barrier that protects the internal organs and tissues from external pathogens, chemicals, and physical injuries. The skin's outermost layer, known as the epidermis, is composed of tightly packed cells that prevent the entry of harmful substances. Additionally, the skin produces antimicrobial peptides and oils that help kill or inhibit the growth of bacteria and other microorganisms. Therefore, the skin plays a crucial role in maintaining the body's overall health and protecting it from potential harm.

In other words, HIV is the virus that can lead to the development of AIDS if left untreated.
