The human body is host to trillions  of microbes or bacteria. Most of these are useful but may become harmful when out of control.

The microbiota consists of a wide variety of bacteria, viruses, fungi ,and other microorganisms present in a singular environment such as the human digestive tract.

<h3>Gut microbiota : </h3>

The gut microbiota is vast and complex collection of microorganisms that profoundly affects human health gut microbiota are present in the digestive tract of vertebrates including humans.

The function of gut microbiota in body function includes harvesting energy from digested food, protecting against pathogens, regulating immune system and strengthening biochemical barriers of the gut and intestine changes in microbiota composition can affects these functions.

The normal gut microbiota have specific functions like host nutrition metabolism, maintenance of structural integrity of the gut mucosal barrier, helps in immunity, protect against pathogens.

<h3>Commensal microorganisms:</h3>

Commensal microorganisms are those type of microbes that reside on either surface of the body or at mucosa without harming human health . commensal bacteria are 10 times more than the cells present in our  body.

Example - Streptococcus oralis and Streptococcus salivarius .

Commensal microorganisms plays an important role against pathogens including respiratory pathogens. It acts on the host's immune system to induce protective response that prevents colonization an invasion by pathogens. On the other hand these bacteria can directly inhibits the growth of respiratory pathogens by producing antimicrobial products .it also competing for nutrients and adhesion sites. Provides the host with essential nutrients.

Exercising causing ___________
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

c. increase HDL levels

Explanation:

Cholesterol is carried in blood in two ways, LDL and HDL. Both of them are lipoproteins made of fat and protein. LDL or Low Density Lipoprotein has 50% cholesterol and 25% protein by weight. HDL or High Density Lipoprotein has 20% cholesterol and 50 % protein. LDL carries cholesterol to arteries and deposits it there which is not good for the body. HDL on the other hand removes excess cholesterol from body via liver.

Aerobic exercise increases HDL values and lowers LDL values. It has been shown that exercising regularly can increase HDL level by 6% which is good for the overall health of the body. For maximum effect 30 minutes of moderate exercise should be done 5 times a week.
