Mucus is a naturally occurring substance that is produced by mucus-producing cells in various parts of the body. Mucus is found in the upper respiratory system and other parts of the body that help catch tiny foreign particles like dust so that the lungs are still able to filter the air efficiently without being impeded by tiny dust particles.
Mucus in other parts of the body act as lubricant, like in the female reproductive system, or even in the process of defecation.
