Which feeding outcome benefits termites when wood consumption increases?

💡 Explanation

Increased wood intake elevates volatile fatty acids, creating favorable conditions for protists; lignocellulose fermentation via the cellulase enzymatic mechanism is critical. More efficient lignocellulose fermentation enables better nutrition; therefore, termites depend on protists, rather than termite lignin digestion, which is less productive.
