Fiesta28 [93]

Answer: Gut microbiome degrade the ingested milk sugars through a biochemical pathway, producing ATP required for the energy needs of infant.

Explanation:

The human breast milk fed on by infants  contains a high concentration of indigestible oligosaccharides which include lacto-N-tetraose and lacto-N-fucopentaose.

These milk sugars are utilized by microbes in the gut of infants, yielding lactate as the final product of metabolism and releasing several molecules of ATP as useful energy for use by the infant.

Thus, the presence of these gut microbes at birth, and the feeding of infant with breast milk is vital to fulfilling their energy needs

Why do Canadians pay much less for treated water.
lesya692 [45]
Canada, one of the wealthiest countries in the world, is also one of the most water-rich. The province of Ontario shares the Great Lakes—which contain 18 percent of the world’s fresh surface water—with the United States. Access to sufficient, affordable, and safe drinking water and adequate sanitation is easy for most Canadians. But this is not true for many First Nations indigenous persons. In stark contrast, the water supplied to many First Nations communities on lands known as reserves is contaminated, hard to access, or at risk due to faulty treatment systems. The government regulates water quality for off-reserve communities, but has no binding regulations for water on First Nations reserves.
