Answer:
Correct Answer: A
Solution:
Some specialized kupffer cells are found in the live cells which generally help in the destruction of many germs.
Liver secretes bile, which acts as an antiseptic, therefore it does not allow the growth and multiplication of bacteria.
By the help of these two components liver helps in the destruction of germs.
Liver is the primary site of detoxification and elimination of body wastes and poisons.
