The correct answer is d. it is mainly there to prevent any noxious substance from inner into the gut.
<span>
An omentum is a layer of the peritoneum (the serous membrane that lines abdominal cavity) that surrounds abdominal organs. It is known that omentum plays a role in immune responses. Omentum contains the clusters of white blood cells (lymphocytes), called “milky spots” which have the first-line defence role in the immune system. When a noxious substance is present, the "milky spots" induce the release of inflammatory molecules.</span>

Are the counts of blue crabs in Maryland accurate for 1991 and 1999?
kirill [66]
The population of blue crabs will be difficult for the scientists to count because of unreliable ways and natural phenomenon or occurrence that causes the water's temperature to rise. According to climate reports, year 1999 have warmer temperature and this probably caused the blue crabs to be active, but on year 1990 female blue crabs sustained a normal quantity of production of their species. Thus, the estimated count of population of blue crabs is probably more accurate in year 1990 than year 1999 because of the stable production of the female crabs.
