It’s no surprise that the digestive system is directly linked to the immune system. Whether or not the immune system is at it’s peak depends on the healthiness of the digestive tract.
The digestive system is responsible for your overall well-being. It breaks down the food you eat into essential nutrients that help repair cells, stimulate growth, and give your body energy. The digestive system also protects your body from harmful invaders that could disrupt healthy living. There are bad bacteria present even in the most nutritious foods you eat that the digestive system is constantly fighting. In order to do this, good bacteria in the gut, specialized immune cells, and hormones work together to keep the GI tract at its optimum level.
Prokaryotes, like most living organisms, need movement to locate food and to survive. If a prokaryote needed to move to a new food source, which structure would it use for locomotion?
