← Nature & AnimalsWhich 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.
