If a biologist said that the human body might be getting its power from bacteria he would be referring to energy cells that utilize bacteria by producing energy bacteria in our intestinal tra?

More than likely, he is referring to the theory that Eukaryotic cells like ours took on a simbiotic relationship with a rod like bacteria to create Mitochondria. Mitochondria are the organelles that efficiently produce ATP (Cell energy). Mitochondria have distinct DNA from the cell they inhabit and have a distinct bacteria like stucture. They also have the ability to reproduce on their own within the cell when higher energy production is necessary.

Yes, but these bacteria are not in all soils. Antrax can be found in some soils. Many pathogenic bacteria can be in untreated sewage or septic effluent, which might be spread on soils. However, these intestinal bacteria usually don't live very long in soils. They are built to live and compete inside a living body, and are no match for native soil bacteria.

What do bacteria possess to allow them to adhere to intestinal lining?
Both bacteria and the lining cells of the intestinal tract have to have mutual attractive proteins. These will allow the bacteria affect the other cells. Many do not and they have no bad effect. We do have billions of bacteria that are beneficial and not harmful. The digestive tract is their normal habitat.
