B contraction :) it's a basic function of all muscles.
Embracing the complexity of the microbiome means doing away with pat conceptions of its function.
Your body is a habitat to trillions of microscopic organisms known, collectively, as your microbiome. Today, the microbiome is one of the hottest areas of biological research, and for good reason. This body-wide ecosystem not only adapts to our diets, lifestyles, and medications, it's also been shown hold sway over our health. The implications for personalized medicine seem clear – the more we understand about the microbiome, the more we can do to condition, or control it to our liking.
But to what end? To shepherd one's microbiome toward some idealized state of healthiness would first require that such a state exists. What does such a state look like? Nobody knows, because an ideal microbiome is almost certainly an illusion. As science writer Ed Yong opines in today's New York Times, contrary to claims by the probiotic industry and the booming genre of microbiome diet books, any system as "complex, varied, ever changing and context-dependent" as the microbiome will, by its very nature, resist easy categorization:
The microbiome is the sum of our experiences throughout our lives: the genes we inherited, the drugs we took, the food we ate, the hands we shook. It is unlikely to yield one-size-fits-all solutions to modern maladies.
We cling to the desire for simple panaceas that will bestow good health with minimal effort. But biology is rarely that charitable. So we need to learn how tweaking our diets, lifestyles and environments can nudge and shape the ecosystems in our bodies. And we need ways of regularly monitoring a person's microbiome to understand how its members flicker over time, and whether certain communities are more steadfast than others.
i hope it help
I would say the stomach is most similar to the mitochondria. This is because the purpose of the mitochondria in a cell is to break down molecules, such as glucose, nucleic & fatty acids, etc., into ATP (cell energy) so it can be used productively. The purpose of the stomach is to break down molecules of whatever is being consumed, so it can later be absorbed by the large and small intestine, and what is absorbed goes into the cells to be used productively.
Put simply, the stomach is similar to the mitochondria because they both provide energy for the greater thing they function, cell or body.
Hope this helps, and hope I was the brainliest! :)
Answer:They must be careful not to kill their host
Explanation:
As parasites cannot survive without a host, they must have evolved to be non-lethal, this is why parasites aren’t too much of a worry, if they killed their host they wouldn’t thrive.
