Answer»

Correct choice is (a) MOUTH

Easy EXPLANATION: Stomach wash tubes are USED to flush out the stomach. This is done by sending in warm water or SALINE solution. The mouth or the nose is used as the access point and careful monitoring is done to ENSURE that the solution reaches the stomach and not the lungs.
