Deer eat leaves and shrubs, which contain the carbohydrate cellulose. Because mammals lack the digestive enzymes needed to break down cellulose, bacteria living in the intestinal tract of a deer digest the cellulose. If the bacteria in a deer's intestinal tract were killed off, the most likely result is that the deer would –
digest the cellulose more slowly
become malnourished and die
die of diseases caused by other bacteria
eat other plant food lower in cellulose
