Which outcome occurs when a ruminant’s abomasum microbiome balance shifts?

A)Increased nutrient absorption ensues quickly
B)Fiber digestion process becomes inhibited
C)Bloat risk suddenly and inexplicably declines
D)Decreased methane release is facilitated

💡 Explanation

Dysbiosis reduces species for cellulose breakdown; therefore, fiber digestion diminishes because fewer microbes conduct cellulolysis within the rumen, rather than increased nutrient absorption, since the altered microbiome becomes less effective at breaking down complex carbohydrates.
