Which outcome occurs when a grassland grazing animal receives antibiotics?

💡 Explanation

Antibiotics disrupt the animal's gut microbiome via disruption; the reduction in microbial diversity then hinders the breakdown of complex carbohydrates. Therefore, overall fiber digestion decreases, rather than vitamin synthesis occurring, because the beneficial microbial populations have been reduced or eliminated.
