Every living thing needs food, also known as nutrients. In nature, living things are connected through food webs. Food webs show us how animals and plants are related through feeding relationships, like birds eating fish. But how do nutrients get returned back into the food web? The answer is bacteria!

The impact of nutritional supplementation, however, was greater on intelligence and achievement than on reaction time. The nutr...
