Answer:

The skin

Digestive tract

Vagina

Mucous membrane

Step-by-step explanation:

The skin prevents microbes from entering the body

Digestive tract e.g. stomach acid is a natural defence mechanism

The vagina is acidic and this prevents harmful bacteria from growing with it's own flora.

Mucous membranes e.g. lining of the mouth, nose, eyelids are all defense mechanisms.
