Mucus is that green stuff inside your nose. It's also inside your throat-it's there to (hopefully) stop viruses, bacteria and anything else that may start a disease getting inside your body. You swallow it and they get destroyed in the stomach.

mucus is a sticky substance which is not only present in the nose but also in the stomach.in the nose it acts as a barrior for all dust particles.while its function in the stomach is to prevent the harm to the stomach wall by HCL acid.
