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 the slimy matter secreted by your mucous membranes to provide lubrication and protection from germs. An example is the mucus in your nose.
Mucus as in mucus plug, and mucus membrane.
