0:00 Normal flora.

00:01 The term normal flora denotes the microbes which are present in the human intestina.

00:09 Hence it is also referred to be as intestinal bacteria because bacteria is the species that is found in the human intestine or else it is also referred to be as enteric bacteria.

00:21 Here the term enteric in turn denotes intestina.

00:25 Hence these are all the alternative terms that can be used in the place of normal bacteria.

00:30 Flora and the normal flora it has a symbiotic relationship with that of the human host and this interaction can be also opportunistic in nature because it is considered to be opportunistic.

00:46 The reason behind this is that this microbe only when they are present in the intestine they will be beneficial for the host when it moves slightly away from the intestine either into the stomach or into the other parts of the intestine that is on the distal portion of the intestine this can become harmful to the human and they in turn can then they in turn will be converted into pathogens so only as long as they are present in the intestine they are considered by the name normal flora the advantages that is given by normal flora to the human host include the first one is that they help in digestion of the substrate that is certain substrate in turn will contain very hard materials and macro materials like that of cellulose or fibres which are then digested by these normal flora and they also help in the production of certain vitamins for the human bodies so these are considered to be the essential vitamins and they also help in the process of cell maturation and also to stimulate the process of cell maturation and also they help to stimulate the immune system.

02:00 So any foreign material or any antigen comes in contact with it, it can help the immune system to stimulate in order to evoke an immune response.

02:09 And they also help in colonization resistant by other species...
