What is snot made of?

Answer by  MHugabom (523)

Snot is made from mucus secreted from your mucus membranes. Snot is mostly made from water, with some proteins to add the consistancy. Snot filters contaminates from the air. The color and consistancy of snot is determined by the water content, contaminates, and protein content.

snot is made up of of mucous and particles that enter the nasal passages. Our bodies build up these mucus membranes in different parts of our bodies to protect us from bateria other particles. The membranes are like a glue and when we breath in air born pathogens, they stick to the mucus.
