Which statement about the microbiome is true?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A person's microbiome is protective in nature and is important for good health, such as helping with food digestion, keeping some pathogenic organisms in check, and stimulating immune function. The microbiome is constantly manipulated by the environment, and its influence on health does not decrease (it may, in fact, increase). Identical twins share the same genome as well as the same microbiome at birth. Most identical twins share the same environment both in utero and shortly after birth, but as they grow older, their environments differ.
