Organisms that digest fiber in the large intestine primarily include certain bacteria and archaea, which are part of the gut microbiota. These microorganisms possess enzymes that can break down complex carbohydrates, such as cellulose and hemicellulose, into simpler compounds. The fermentation of fiber by these organisms produces short-chain fatty acids, which provide energy to the host and support gut health. This process plays a crucial role in the overall digestion and absorption of nutrients.
