PLEASE HELP

What's in a Name?


Mucus is a great word, not only because it gives name to an important bodily function, but also because it is one of those words that simultaneously makes you feel grossed-out and giggly. Other words for this powerfully important human-health tool include slime and phlegm. Slang words for mucus include boogers and snot. All of these words have the same giggle-power, simply from the combination of consonants and vowels. By the way, mucus is an old word; it's been around since the mid-1600s and has roots back to Latin (mucere, to be moldy or musty) and Greek (myxa, mucus). While you may assume that words like snot and boogers are relatively new slang terms, they are not. Snot dates to 1560 and comes from an Old English word, gesnot, and has the same root as the word snout. The word booger is not quite as old but has been in use since the 1890s.

Answer 1

Fact by fact

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

My BEST guess is A-Fact by fact.

Step-by-step explanation:

The text talks about what mucus is, and what it is known for.

B-Problem and solution, could not be the answer because there, did not state a problem, nor solution.

C-Cause and effect couldn't be an answer because the text did not state any causes of mucus and the effect upon anything.

D-Chronological order, could 'possibly' be the answer, but in chronological order, there would be step-by-step issues, dates of where, why, and how it, mucus, appeared.

A-Fact by fact, gives information and facts about what mucus is and where it came from and gives you relevant input.

So the best guess that makes more sense is A!

I hoped this makes sense and helped you out some :)
