A Correct answer
Explanation

When microbes enter through the nose, they travel down the respiratory tract and primarily infect the lungs and respiratory system. The heart is vascular and not directly accessible this way, while the gut requires swallowing through the mouth, and the liver would require bloodstream circulation from the lungs.
