What is Behavioral Adaptation?
a physical feature such as fur in mammals or hollow bones in birds, that allows the animal to survive in its habitat.

Describe one way we can re-introduce beneficial bacteria into our microbiomes

What is Fecal Transplant?
All of the microorganisms in someone’s body; including the viruses, beneficial and pathogenic bacteria, fungus and parasites
What is microbiome?
when certain bacteria are so strong, they are not affected or killed by antibiotics
What are antibiotic Resistance?
This is the study of the relationship between organisms and their environment
What is Ecology?
Nutritional supplements comprised of beneficial bacteria used to repopulate the natural good bacteria to our microbiome
What is probiotic
Antibiotics only work on bacteria because bacterial cells have this feature that animal cells DO NOT have
What is a cell wall
