The correct answer is B. A coating of mucus

Explanation:

In the stomach food that has been chewed is digested or broken down through the action of specialized enzymes and acid. This gastric acid is essential for digestion but is also highly corrosive. Due to this, the stomach produces mucus that forms a coating (known as the gastric mucosal barrier)and allows the stomach to contain the gastric acid without this affecting negatively the stomach lining. This implies that the stomach lining is protected from gastric acid by a coating of mucus.

Alla [95]

Answer:

The eukaryotes, bacteria, and archaea that live in and on the human body are called normal microbiota. When they were originally discovered, scientists thought that the relationship between these organisms was parasitic because they thought that the organisms benefit from living on the host but did not help the host. In recent years, researchers have determined that most of our resident microbes derive and give benefit to the host. This makes the relationship between host and microbe one of mutualism. Pathogenic, on the other hand, are microbes that cause diseases.

Pani-rosa [81]

✯Hello✯☆(❁‿❁)☆

↪  I think its from 6%-10% of living organisms today that will become fossils

↪  Animals have a less likely chance since they have parts that are difficult to become fossils (like teeth, bones)

↪  Plants may decompose and go underwater to be used as Crude Oil

↪  Most of the population are humans, which will be extremely hard to fossilise
