When the treated termites were instead fed wood contaminated with the feces of untreated termites, the treated termites regained the ability to digest wood and no longer starved. The best analysis of the results of the experiment is thatAinfection with protozoa causes the termites to switch to fermentationBcooperative interactions between the termites and the protozoa allow termites to extract energy from wood to surviveCthe termite immune system eliminates protozoa from the gutDtermites digest protozoa as their main source of energy
