Answer to Question 1

GI bacteria protect people from infections. Provided that the normal intestinal flora are thriving, infectious bacteria have a hard time getting established and launching an attack on the system. In addition, the small intestine and the entire GI tract manufacture and maintain a strong arsenal of defenses against foreign invaders. Several different types of defending cells are present in the GI tract, and they confer specific immunity against intestinal diseases.
