← Nature & AnimalsWhich outcome occurs when an animal experiences chronic intestinal inflammation?
A)Gut microbiome diversity declines markedly.✓
B)Vitamin synthesis increases significantly.
C)Immune cells remain entirely unaffected.
D)Nutrient absorption becomes more efficient.
💡 Explanation
A decline in gut microbiome diversity happens when inflammation disrupts the equilibrium because chronic inflammation negatively alters the gut environment, therefore beneficial microbes diminish, rather than vitamin synthesis increasing, and immune cells become activated under such conditions.
