Correct Answer: cold


Solution : The second option is correct.

The word cold is used here to describe a common situation when nasal mucus or snot is produced. When someone has a cold, it is common for the nose to produce mucus, and the passage draws a comparison between snail slime (mucus) and human nasal mucus.

Therefore, the correct answer will be cold.
