The Cecum contains microorganisms which digest cellulose.Why would the presence of these microorganisms be important in the process of digestion?

The bacteria are provided with a home and lots of food in exchange. Humans don't do this. We have no capacity to digest cellulose. The appendix is the remnant of the Caecum in the human.
