Which nutritional outcome occurs when ruminant animals consume excess grain?

A)Acidosis due to microbiome population shift
B)Increased cellulose digestion efficiency occurs
C)Methane production is consistently suppressed
D)Enhanced vitamin B12 synthesis is enabled

💡 Explanation

Acidosis occurs largely because of a microbiome shift towards more acid-producing bacteria when digesting starch grains. This process overwhelms buffering capacity. Therefore, animals experience pH decline along with depressed appetite , rather than an increase in digestive efficiency under this condition.
